like I said earlier, I think Butler now is pretty much a lock for the tourney.
Going to be a really nervous time for Creighton. You would like to think 1 win(even just over DePaul) would get them in, but then again, if only d1 teams you've beaten since Jan 17 are DePaul(x2), St John's, and Georgetown- you might have a problem. 19-11(remembering the d2 game doesn't count) puts their RPI entering the BET at 51.5. I think that's bare minimum what they would need- as 18-12 only gets them a RPI of 64.7. 19 gets them on the bubble, 20 gets them in probably for sure.

In terms of what it takes to get in at this point, beating DePaul is certainly a must and might be enough - but I think it will take winning one in BE (2 if we fall to the 7 seed), which of course means beating X or Nova in the quarterfinals.
