Nice win by Marquette.

Nobody's dead till the schedule says so.

Agree. Marquette, STJ and Butler all look like they're going to be much tougher on the second half of the schedule. Still waiting for GT to put it together too. Tournament's going to be crazy.

I don't really think Butler belongs in this group.

Please elaborate. I'm sure X is looking forward to an easy stroll in the park at Hinkle on the 11th.

Well you aren't even a week removed from losing to St. John's by 17 on your home floor. Beating Seton Hall (although being on the road) doesn't exactly make me completely change my views on them.

I don't think this is a fair statement. You can''t look at one or two results and make any definitive conclusions on just a bout all of the teams. We all thought SHU and DePaul were going to be pushovers. Wrong. We all thought Gtwn and Marq were going to be the class of the league. Wrong. Then we thought that SJU was dead. Wrong. They beat Butler on the road and gave CU all they could handle in Omaha. They might be ready to start to go on a run. We now think PC and Xavier are tourney teams. I'm not yet 100% sure on that. PC is thin with depth and Xavier ends its season with a murderous schedule. Both could fade. The only thing that I THINK seems the closest to a sure thing in the BE this year is that CU and Nova are going to make the tourney. After that it seems like a fluid league from week to week. SHU might end up 4th or 10th. Marq or Gtwn could be 3rd or 9th. SJU could rattle off 5 or 6 straight if they have gotten their act together. SHU might be ready to join the top half of the league. Butler could jump ahead of several teams if they keep playing well. Who knows.

great comeback by PC, just in too deep. Can someone explain to me, why PC struggles so much against Marquette? Is it a spell?

We may or may not have some incriminating photos of the friar...
