MU has a week off. Ugh, I really hate that at this time of the year especially coming off a crappy loss. Ok if have injuries.
-
02-15-2017, 08:42 AMMU/PantherIn this case of what Wojo said in the postgame, sounded like a good thing. Work to do. Save about three days not having to prep for a game. Also could have been a home game vs Stetson tonight as well.Quote:

I'm not going to wish injury on anyone. Hope he heals in time for Saturday.
Cheer for Butler, Xavier and Creighton tonight -

I'm pulling for bubble teams Providence and Seton Hall tonight! Both need win bad.
-
02-15-2017, 01:15 PMMU_IcemanI still don't understand this logic...rooting for fellow BE teams..Particularly SH and PC, anytime they win, it could be BAD for MU. I don't care how many BE teams make it in, as long as MU is one of them. The more SH and PC lose, the better it is for MU(theoretically). A week ago or so when it looked like MU had a legit chance to still finish 2nd..I'd be right there pulling for Xavier and Creighton to lose. Since it's now basically survival mode for MU, I will root for Creighton and Xavier.Quote:

Nothing is bad for Marquette, other than themselves not winning. They control their fate. Standings don't mean anything in at-large picks. The committee says that. Jerry Palm says that.
-
02-15-2017, 06:33 PM2012WarriorIt's not about the standings. These are fellow bubble teams. If we go 4-1 the rest of the regular season, it doesn't matter. However 3-2, would take some help (maybe a lot). I'd rather other teams around us not win.Quote:

Those teams winning would absolutely hurt MU. Once MU has eliminated themselves or played well enough to become a lock, then yes we can root for SH, PC and GT. Until then, the more they lose, the more distance is created between them and MU on the bubble.Quote:

God Providence is not very good. Still really PO'd MU lost to them.

02-15-2017, 07:17 PMMU/Panther
Creighton 10 Seton Hall 8 on CBSSN
3 home games in 7 days for Seton Hall. Villanova and Xavier are next for the Pirates. -
02-15-2017, 09:24 PMmufan2003Yes. I want MU to go 5-0, then win the BE and NCAA tournament :cool:. Other than that, maximize bids for the Big East. Good night for the BE bubble teams.Quote:

Possible
Xavier: XU probably gets in with one, but if they go 2-3 (beat Butler, DePaul, lose to Seton Hall, Marquette twice) they would certainly be in.
Marquette: 3-2 probably gets us in, but let's say 5-0 because it's Marquette (beat Xavier twice, St. John's, Providence, Creighton).
Seton Hall: 3-2 gets them to 9-9, which would be good enough. Best case scenario, beat Butler, Xavier, and DePaul, lose to Georgetown and Villanova.
Providence: 3-1 should be enough. Last two are DePaul and St. John's. If they can steal one at Creighton, then lose to Marquette, they may be in business, otherwise playing for NIT.
Georgetown: May need 5-0, but even 4-1 gives them a shot. Tough because of three road games (Creighton, St. John's, Seton Hall). At home, it's the bottom (DePaul) and the top (Villanova).
I don't think it's likely, pretty much everything has to break right, but it's not impossible. As long as Marquette's in I'm happy, but at this point I could see anywhere from 4-8 teams, with 6 feeling most likely (I think Marquette and Seton Hall both get in).
