I'm happy that nova lost as it increases the chances of marq making the tourney (although still very slim).

As far as not caring about the success of the big east conf, I'm not going to go down that road with you again and I'll leave it at that.

Good point as I didnt think of it from that angle!

Not just that, but having a buzzer beater that is currently featured on the Deadspin top story, is good for the Big East. Nice big crowd...which will be big tomorrow too with a local team playing.

And UW just wrapped up the 1 seed unless they lose tomorrow

Not true... a few other teams might still have a chance IMO

Michigan would have a hell of a case if they win both the Big 10 regular season and Tournament title

Louisville if they run the table might also have a chance

Kansas has 8 losses but if they win both Big 12 titles to go along with the toughest schedule in the country and currently #3 RPI?

I really like Jay Wright.....no whining about seeding for him.....

UW lost any chance they had at a #1 when they lost to Nebraska.

All things being equal (say either of them were to beat Hall and lose to Creighton) who has a better chance of getting an at large: STJ or Prov?

Palm has UW as the last #1 as of now......http://www.cbssports.com/collegebasketball/bracketology

I'm rooting for St John's in the hopes that it will help attendance in the Garden.
