Top 3 feel locked in. PC, CU, SJU, BU all going to be a hell of a battle for 4th. Need a little more evidence from Marquette, but they can get there.

I really like Providence.

But stop with the excuses please. UMASS and the A10 are a mess.

DePaul's starting point guard, Devin, Gage, out for the year with a ruptured Achilles.

Also, today starting center Marin Maric left the game with an injury. DePaul cannot afford to lose him.

Friars are going to struggle in BE play unless they clean up their interior defense. They took the lead and then allowed dribble penetration uncontested layups the rest of the game.

I didn't give an excuse. I said I expected them to lose since they struggled to beat Brown and Rider

I wasn't taking a shot at you.

I just wish the Friars could navigate games like this more effectively.

That's rough and here I was thinking they had a shot vs. Northwestern.
