hunch is the way he's got it set up- St John's/PC would be a BET 4/5 game where winner is in and loser is out.
seeds are horrible- Georgetown and Xavier with 8/9 which are the worst ones to get.
And If St. John's and PC win a few quality games and avoid bad losses in non-conference play, finish around 9-9 in conference play, and have RPIs in the 40s-low 50s both would be in and this wouldn't be an elimination scenario.

I don't think having 9 wins in conference play will matter as much as whether teams have bad losses. St. John's last year won 10 conference games and 20 overall but still didn't dance b/c of some God awful losses (Penn St comes to mind & I think DePaul was another one).
