BET seeding

[Get a Job]

It's never too early, in my opinion, to start talking about the final regular season conference standings. Here is the bracket tool in case you're inclined to play around with scenarios. mred's Big East MBB Tournament Seeding Tiebreaker

@navery12 , do you happen to know if that guy who makes spreadsheets showing the probabilities of all the outcomes has begun releasing them yet?

We have 9 conference games left

St Johns2)
Creighton(1)
Marquette(1)
Nova(1)
SH(2)
Gtown(1)
PC(1)

We need to go 5-0 against pc,GTown, sh, nova

And 2-2 against Samson Johnson, Marquette, Creighton. Pretty much win the home games.

That’d make us 23-8(15-5)

 

[UConNick]

That’d make us 23-8(15-5)

If we can get the Net/KP up some ten spots, I think this would have us in competitive position for a 4 seed and Providence. Although St. John’s is emerging as a potential rival for that site.

If we win BET we may be a 2 seed

Why are we playing against our own player(Samson Johson)? We should beat him handily right? No handle. Just pressure him and shoot lots of 3's to avoid getting blocked. LOL!

Truly if iI didn’t enjoy going down to New York, catching a couple of games and going to dinner with some old friends every year, I’d say I don’t much care how we do in the New Big East Tournament. I just want them to be playing the day I’m there and preferably in an earlier game.

If it started today, and I were the coach I’d sit Diarra, Karaban, and McNeeley to let them heal. It means nothing. To put it in perspective, who won the Big East Tournament in 2023? And when you finish googling it, would you trade places with them? I have heard people say they would rather win the Big East than the National Championship. I laugh and ask what do they hate UConn basketball. It is a made for tv event that ultimately is completely meaningless. I realize I’m only speaking for myself but if the Devil offered me a deal of never winning another NBE title but he would not interfere in any national championship tournament, I’d sign on in a heartbeat.

We can both be top 4 seeds in Providence and be placed into different regions, if there aren't other teams that want the Northeast. I haven't looked at the distributions of top seeds yet.

Ever hear of having it and eating it too? My choice.

Wow basically every aspect of this is a disaster. Hilarious you don’t think people remember that Marquette won the regular season and tournament a whole TWO years ago. You might want to get a MRI. And what does “interfere in any national championship tournament“ even mean? That is an incredibly odd way to phrase something, even excluding the fact that you’re bringing make believe into it.

Of course, but I’m concerned there will be an SEC team like UK or Tennessee that could be a 3/4 seed and get stuck in Providence due to their more geographically advantageous sites already getting filled.

It’ll come down to positioning on the s-curve.

I usually do 2-3 personal bracketologies in the lead-up to the Madness. Perhaps it’s time for my first exercise!

Of course it'd be great to be close to home. But, i say this half seriously, I like this team better on the road in a hostile environment so far this year better than some of the limp games they played for the husky faithful at home.

The boneyard making all S J’s Samson Johnson snuck up on me

This is pre Marquette but the most recent update

I really want to see the 1 simulation where UConn finished 9th
