West Virginia plays UConn.

Does a loss by UConn send them to the NIT? That would put them at 19-13 after an 8-10 Big East campaign.
Does a loss by WVU send them to the NIT? That would put them at 19-13 after a 9-9 Big East campaign.
Are both in regardless of today's result? Does winner go an loser go NIT?

Seton Hall plays Louisville.
Lousiville is in no matter what.
Does Seton Hall need a win over a team of Louisville's caliber to get in? A loss and they are 20-12 after an 8-10 Big East campaign.

USF plays Villanova.

Does USF need more wins? Currently they have just 1 win over top 50 RPI teams. A great Big East record of 12-6 and an overall 19-12 record coming into today.

I think USF is in without question.

I think Seton Hall is in win or lose, as long as they have a good showing. A blowout by Louisville, and that may push them to the NIT.

I think WVU is out, if UConn wins, they could get in.

WVU loses - does that put them out? Sure makes it tougher, I think they still get in unless there are some conference tourney upsets.
Going into today CBS Sports Jerry Palm had them a 10 seed.

UConn wins - does that solidify the defending champs will get a chance to defend? I think so.

Lots of the "experts" seem to think SF still has some work to do.

Strange profile.
