To get this thread back on topic - Lunardi just updated his bracketology.

5 Big East Teams in
Marquette - 6 seed
Villanova - 7 seed
Seton Hall - 8 seed
St. John's - 9 seed
Creighton - 9 seed

Butler - 1st team out

Looks like some 1 and 2 seeds are gonna be in trouble if this holds true!

Surprised Lunardi even has us in as of now. Did he not see Creighton in the non-con? We still have no chance of dancing.

Bubble is weak this year with so many down conferences, Creighton would be in as of now...

I can’t believe the amount of CU whining on here from their fans.

Oh wait, yes I can, the Underground is 100 percent saturated with it these days, and science would say it has to go somewhere.

The reason we are projected in is because we are a top 50 team as of now, which is more or less what it takes to get in.

When is the bubble not weak?


Few years ago when A10, MVC and MWC were getting multiple bids.

It was a rhetorical question lol. It seems like come tourney time every year we hear the same thing about how "the bubble is really soft this year."

I don't know if the bubble ends up weaker than last year's, when B1G only got 4 bids.

The latest bracket matrix:

6 Marquette
7 Nova
7 St. John's
8 Seton Hall
11 Creighton

Butler 1st team out

It looks like we won't be getting more than 6 teams in this year, and possibly as low as 4. I'd like to see at least 3 teams get 6th seed or better at this point.
