I suspect we'll never see FriarJ on this board again.

He's a bad penny, he'll turn up.

So Xavier is out as a potential 6 seed? Either St. John's or Providence depending on Xavier-Marquette winner? Is that where we are at?

Big East Tourney - UConn as the #3 seed would play the winner of the #6-#11 game, #11 being DePaul.

If SHU holds off SJU, then #6 would be SJU or PC. Xavier would be 5 with a win or 7 with a loss. That's all I got so far.

If SJU wins, I think:

If Xavier wins, #6 would be SHU or SJU
If Xavier loses, #6 would be PC.

An SJU win means both SJU and SH are 10-9.

As I understand it, because they're 1-1 vs each other, the first tiebreaker goes to their record vs the teams above them. SJU is 2-3 vs Nova/Creigh/UConn. SH is 1-5 vs same. Thus SJU gets the 4 seed.

With a win, Xavier would have a win % of .538 vs Hall's .526. Thus Xavier would be the 5 and Hall 6.

With a loss, Xavier would have a win % of .462 vs Providence's .478. Thus, Hall would be the 5, Providence would be the 6 and Hall the 7.

One correction. With a win, Xavier would be 4, SJU 5, SHU 6

Blachowicz vs Adesanya!!!

Correct, once I put SJU at 4 I forgot that they're still only 10-9, so Xavier would pass them too.

I actually didn't see anything about win % in the tiebreaker rules, as I suppose those are assuming full seasons. Which makes this year interesting as technically Creighton is a half game better than Nova.
