That VU/PC game was telling. Looks like losing Hopkins is just too much to overcome. I would CERTAINLY add Butler to this conversation....Brooks is a Bryce Hopkins doppelganger AND POSH?? The Bulldogs look like a tournament team.

Xavier hasn't really proven anything to this point. Biggest question mark in the conference. Villanova is a must win IMO or the path to even 11-9 gets dicey.


Yeah we're in a tough situation without Hopkins. Even if he had an off night shooting, he still played 40 minutes, grabbing boards, playing great defense, and took pressure off everyone else. Averaged 16 and 8.

The rest of the year will be a slog. Villanova doubled Oduro everytime he touched the ball, and we were throwing up bricks from three. Painful to watch in Sunday night.

The UConn road game does show some possibilities. Also, i think we catch a break cuz in last BE game, home on a Saturday, i would imagine UConn will take it easy with Clingan. Hope so anyway.


If your guys cant hit 3s in the St Johns rematch, we might set the record for worst 3p fg% in a game. Cause you already know the johnnies will be clanking

Nevada with a big Q1 win at Utah St. Probably doesn't get them into the field yet, but sure gets them a lot closer.

31 Boise St and 32 MIchigan St both lose tonight so they could easily be on here come Friday when I update this again.

USF beats Charlotte in the AAC. Charlotte was auto bid. So tomorrow if he updates, USF would get the auto bid as they're 9-1 vs FAU at 8-1. But if FAU wins vs UAB, they would take the auto bid, and an extra at large spot would appear.

lol. Creighton seems to be alergic to a top 4 seed.

And next up is Xavier who really needs this game. Of all their tougher games, this game has the best chances of winning.

lots of green this 4 day period. 17-6 for all these bubble teams.
