2 games to go for everyone in the Big East (1 for St John's / Villanova), and the goal is to get to 2/3 seed for the BET.

Looking through scenarios and the path to a 3 seed is pretty straightforward, beat Marquette on Wednesday and we'd need a win vs Seton Hall or a Marquette loss vs St John's to lock in the 3 seed.

The path to a 2 seed is not easy, but is where things get fun. This is a longshot, but this path means avoiding a matchup with Villanova or Xavier in the quarterfinals:

The most likely path is getting into a 3 way tie with Marquette and Creighton, where UConn wins the round robin tie breaker between the 3 teams. This requires UConn beating Marquette on Wednesday, Marquette beating St John's on Saturday, and Creighton losing to 1 of Seton Hall/Buter.

The other option is UConn beats Marquette on Wednesday and Creighton goes 0-2 this week against Seton Hall and Butler, which is not happening.

The actual chances of any of this happening are here:
