19-10........ we rise up vs the upper teams, all of us complaining right now, we are 4th in the BE after predicated 11, we have 19 wins, we have 2 games left then the BET...... This team is wacky, bad enough to lose to Depaul 2x but good enough to basically beat UCONN 2x..... so we have 2 reg. games left and the BET..... they have it in them to do work, so would you rather us in last place or us sweating this out at seasons end? Ill be at MSG for the Thursday quarterfinal game day...... ...... lets Go Pirates

The joy of winning a game at the Garden may be better than anticipation of an NCAA bubble watch.

3 in a row would give us a W over SJU which would be our best W for the resume. Even then, I still don’t see us getting in with 9 Big East losses and our OOC. We would then get UConn presumably if we win our first BE game under this hypo, because they would be the 1 seed at 18-2 (SJU likely at 17-3 in this scenario and the 2 seed). So then we would have to beat Uconn to have a good shot IMO.

Don't lose at Xavier. Start there. Hopefully fans finally turnout for a Friday night game against St. John's.

Then see what happens at 21-10, 11-9 with another Q1 win as you enter the BET. Bubble teams around the country have been doing miserable again.

Where do I sign for this scenario? We'd have JUICE with this fanbase if we won 3 straight and get into the BE semis Friday night at the Garden. Tipping off that game against a big time opponent in a packed Garden with a chance to possibly punch a ticket or at least play in the BET championship game?
