Ahead of Seton Hall and DePaul maybe one other team, but still bottom half of the conference.

A better question is where will they finish in a watered down A10?

The problem with that is that the bottom feeders aren't getting in the tourney. The BE teams, particularly the top rung, must get some signature wins in the OOC.

I disagree. How about Georgetown over VCU? Big East owns the A10 so far.

I don't think you understand. The A-10, right now, has 5 teams in the RPI top 50. Those are just facts. Their top 5 are ahead of the BE top 5. I could also point out that one of the perceived lower rung A-10 schools, GW, just beat Creighton. Like the man said, you can have your own opinion, but not your own facts.
