This may be scary, but Id have exact same order as Rothstein except for G-Town second and Nova third.

I dislike Gottlieb, but his predictions seem good to my eye.

I think a lot of the "experts" are under-estimating Providence.

How so? Which ones do you put them ahead of? MU, SJ, GU, Creighton, Nova, X? Based on returning players and where they were last year, I think they enter the season in a mix for 5-7. Most picked them at 7. I can't argue with that. So where do you think they fit?

It's funny to look at that table. Marquette and DePaul look like bookends.

It will be interesting to see how we respond to being the hunted, rather than playing the underdog, no respect role.

I agree, though I suspect Buzz will find a way to play that angle.
