Congrats to Everyone!

Very, very pleased with the conference so far. So far, we are greatly exceeding my expectations for the season. 1-8 are really strong. Marquette will be back soon.

Special congrats to Creighton and Providence. I thought both would be down greatly. Keep up the awesome work.

I'll be leading the big east parade come Dec. 1 if the teams keep playing they way they have been, but let's pump the breaks until then. A poor showing could derail all the positives we've seen thus far

I think pretty much though unless the bottom absolutely falls out- we're going to be WAY ahead of where we were last year..... What would be worst case would be Georgetown goes 1-2 in Atlantis, Butler 0-3, Marquette 1-2, Creighton 1-1, Xavier 2-1, Nova loses tonight, Seton Hall loses to GW, PC loses to Kentucky in a blowout, and St John's goes 0-2 in the NIT. Unless pretty much all of that happens, we are in far better shape than we were last year. Also already have more quality wins than we had last year at this point.

I guess it's what you define as a blowout. PC losing by 20 to Kentucky in Lexington will not impact the conference negatively one bit. PC will get an RPI boost the minute the ball is thrown up no matter the outcome.

Why do we need to look at the absolute worst case scenario? We can flip it and look at the absolute best case scenario, I mean thats just as likely as the absolute worst right? Though we all know it will be somewhere in-between. Some wins, some losses, some surprising some expected. No need for worst case scenarios, we hear them from you way to often.
