Depaul = Bubble Burtser

[TheBall]

WTF

Last yr it was seton hall tanking all out of conference and then beatings isn't enough bubble teams to hurt the conference come March. Well, depaul tanked soooo much worse this out of conference, and they ended Marquette's season in Wednesday and they just took Savier off the s-curve.

Can we trim down to 9 teams for a couple of years while depaul gets their act together so that we can avoid this nonsense?

They'll probably end up taking 2 bids away from the Big East...

If any team dosent get a bid because they lose to DePaul, its that team's fault for losing to them. Christ are we gonna do this every game they win

Seriously. Some of you guys patronize the newcomers and then whine when you lose to DePaul.

Seriously, you are complaining this season but forget about Butler's 145 RPI from last season, which was 2nd worst in the conference. Think that helped out the league?

i don't have association with any one team so i just want to see BE do well. (have as many teams in the dance and advance) thus i will be rooting against depaul all year. had they won their share of OOC I would be all over their bandwagon, but now they're just hurting the conference.

So the bottom 3 teams coming in to conference play should automatically forfeit their games because in the event they beat any of the top 7 teams, their chances of getting in the tournament will be less. Better yet. Let's not have any conference games so we can preserve our tourney teams. Go Big East!

Nah, just the bottom one.

And if depaul actually dove after a loose ball or two in December, then all ten would be welcome. You dog it all out of conference play, don't expect respect.

So why did those 2 teams lose to a sorry excuse for a team like DePaul? Stop respecting your opponent then don't be mad when you lose and not make it to the tournament. No excuse to losing against this team. Their RPI is not a fluke. They didn't have a strange single lose against a bad team in December....they lost to a bunch of them.

DePaul has more talent than most of you think. They do need a better coach though. Selfish play, bad decisions and poor coaching cost them several non-conference games.
