Message: [QUOTE="nelsonmuntz, post: 4462443, member: 833"] Here are the Big East's NET ratings for games through 12/10 (with remaining OOC opponents): UConn - 1 Xavier - 39 (Southern) Marquette - 43 (@ Notre Dame) Creighton - 44 (Arizona State (N)) Butler - 51 St. Johns - 71 (Florida State (N)) Providence - 103 Villanova - 115 (St. Joseph's (N)) Seton Hall - 119 (@Rutgers, Drexel) Depaul - 156 (@Duquesne, @Northwestern) Georgetown - 242 That is not terrible, but not great. That is a 4-5 bid league depending on how the OOC opponents do in their own conference play and how the Big East standings play out. The problem for UConn is that there is not another top team or two for UConn to pick up high quality wins. Villanova may get a mulligan on some of its early games for Whitmore and the other injured player whose name I forget. Marquette, Creighton, Seton Hall and Depaul could still meaningfully help their NET ratings with wins. Marquette and Depaul are the only two of those that have shown any signs of life so far this season. [/QUOTE]
