Seton Hall looks destined to play on Wednesday night in the BE tournament with DePaul’s upset of Creighton. DePaul has an easy schedule to end the year.

I don’t have the Hall winning another game. Schedule to tough down the stretch.

Beat the 11 seed and get Nova for the 6th time in 2 seasons

I dont like your pessimism. I believe we at least will beat Xavier. But that will be difficult on their home court. But the Musketeers really dont know how to win

 

[joeyklings]

That’s definitely our best chance at a win. But with 2 road games and St. John’s on tap, it doesn’t exactly look easy.

Seton Hall appears almost locked in to the 4/5 game and The Crown. Villanova would not be in its bracket.

I thought the same thing and while it is the most likely scenario it’s far from a lock. Creighton can win 1 of its final 2 games giving them 9 wins. DePaul very well could beat Marquette and Butler giving them 9 wins. There is potential we lose all 3 and end up with 9 wins. That would leave us in a 3 way tie and in record vs those teams we would be 1-3 and the 6 seed. I’m saying the chances of that are 15-20%. But we’re far from a lock in the 4/5 game.

Creighton would also be 1-3 in above scenario.

If the hall loses out, we lose the tiebreaker w Creighton and DePaul

 

[NCAAsorBust]

Creighton would also be 1-3 in above scenario.

And I think the next tie break is record vs 1st place team. Then second place team. Etc. they beat UConn

 

[Piratz]

Feels destined to be a 10-10 season with the manic bipolar style we play. Hope we miraculously find our shots.

Butler could play a huge role for us; they play both Creighton and DePaul....win 1 of those and then we have to take care of business and win at least 1 of our 3.

Can't lose 3 of 3 and complain about playing Wednesday...get what you deserve...

If we lose our last 3 what does it even matter then. One game at a time.

7 days, 3 games, a lot of big opportunities, a lot of potential for disaster. We can go from winning and securing an at large bid to being tied a 6 seed in the BET, buckle up boys it's going to be bumpy but it could also be fantastic.

 

[joeyklings]

The best scenario would be Creighton losing out and we play and get revenge on Depaul in the 4/5 game

 

[radecicco]

Yup, for the second time in three years a crazy loss to Creighton is going to really hurt us. Got to hand it to DePaul. I watched that game with a sinking feeling. They out shot Creighton from 3 and made every shot they had to make in the second half. Impressive.
