BE Regular Season tie breaker

We are losing the tiebreaker in real time -- Creighton is pulling away from Butler in the second half, while Providence is spitting the bit early against Marquette.

We're gonna need Seton Hall to win on Friday to give us a chance at the #1 seed.

Yeah, this isn't looking good. Creighton looks like they have this one in the bag - PC losing by double digits already and don't trust them to win two.

Honestly, might be better off - getting a banged up Nova really not that much harder than Hall in the semis. And it gets us a Q1 in the event any Florida nonsense comes up. Bring it. SH played us tougher than Nova did collectively anyway.

Why do you care about the #1 seed?
 
.-.
From a pride perspective, I want UConn to win the outright regular season title and be the #1 seed, but from a selfish game-watching perspective, the #2 seed would actually be better for me, since the first game would be on TV at a time I can actually watch live.
 
It all hinges on SJU at SHU tomorrow. If St. John's wins, they are the 1-seed. If Seton Hall wins, UConn is the 1-seed. UConn's result doesn't matter for seeding in any scenario.

 
I know the default is that we all want the 1 seed in the BET, but is it weird that I’d feel more confident against Nova than Seton Hall — and maybe even Providence or Creighton? However, Hall could fall to the 6, so there's lots to be determined still. I also feel like we're less likely to come out slow in a night game (2 seed) than @ noon (1 seed) in the Thursday quarterfinals lol.
Also , one more small caveat: in case we do get the second seed we get to play at 7 PM Thursday night and also get the later game on Friday, which is good for those people who have to work in the daytime - if they’re the #1 seed , Thursday’s game would be at noon. Terrible time.
