I really want Marquette to win and secure the 4 seed. I’d much rather have Seton Hall as the 4 and only have to face one of Creighton or Marquette.
The way Marquette is playing it is going to be another UConn vs. St. John's contest at MSG in the semis.

At some point, strength of schedule has to be taken into consideration. I get they lost some games they should have won, but they are playing well now. Also, they have a W against UNC.
Yeah but they lost to 4 crappy teams in their city.

Marquette losing at Xavier would instead give Creighton the rose-petal-strewn path to Saturday night at MSG.

Nothing like dirtying up a clean sheet in last game of the season, Florida. Not to be outdone in the state, South Florida adds a bad loss to their pair of early season embarrassments.

Welcome to the Q3 loss club.

KY as a 2 in the south
Tenn as a 2 in the midwest
North Carolina as a 2 in the east
Iowa State as a 2 in the west

Creighton a 3 in the south
Duke as a 3 in the east
Marquette as a 3 in the midwest
Baylor as a 3 in the west

Houston south
Purdue midwest
Zona west
Huskies east

I would love the Huskies to have NC, Duke, Alabama as they're 2-4 in the east.

Wow Jones with a tough layup that got him knocked to the ground and slid 8 feet. Sprinted back on D because he was behind the play. Then got the ball on offense and got super high pressure D against him that he was forced to beat 1v1. Stepback 3, swish.

Dude must be exhausted in this timeout.

Duke and UNC can't both be in the same region as they're 2 of the first 3 teams from a conference.

I like the score of that one right now. No jinx intended.

Houston locked up the overall #1 seed in the NCAA Tournament with today's 30 point destruction of Timberlake (4 pts. :) ) and Kansas. I was hoping Kansas could pull an upset. I wasn't tremendously impressed with Houston, but this win definitely got my attention. I guess playing with minimal bench didn't hurt them. They will be a real contender.

Nova lost 6 straight games against top 10 teams. If Cincy played that schedule, it would be 6 blowouts.

Pretty sure Nova would beat Cincy head on.

Calling the Big East garbage just shows you are nothing but a clueless troll. Mod should just ban your a**.
He offers good banter, lighten up. You’re falling for it

The bracket would have been perfect regardless. We're sitting at #1, ready to take on anyone in our way.
If you poll 1000 UConn fans and the options are: Marquette, likely with Kolek, or Seton Hall/Johnnies/PC… I mean. You know the result.
