Unless Mayo or Wilson start killin it then we'll finish 3rd in the conference and either lose in the round of 64 or 32. This team reminds me of Georgetown's team last year with stellar D and major scoring issues.

I admire your loyalty to your roots even in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary.

Not doubting they will, but each of them is going to reach a point in their schedule where they say wtf have we gotten ourselves into. It has and continues to happen to all of us. Welcome to the Big East!

I guess to be clear I wasn't speaking of the old big east. what I was saying is this:
Creighton
Xavier
Butler
VCU
Temple
UMASS
Saint Louis
vs
Gtown
Marq
Nova
St J
Hall
PC
DePaul
Not trying to put down the new league, love that we are in, just find the talk from fans of St J, Hall, PC, Nova etc that the new schools will have to step up their play night in and night out... to be pretty funny. Been playing better teams than the remaining 7 BE schools for a while.

I thought this was a pretty good read.
Also, while it's very early, the Big East is sitting at #2 in Ken Pomeroy's ratings, behind the Big 10 and ahead of the ACC.
