crazy that Creighton is 42 but would be in the first 4.

Mountain West is looking kinda crazy, too. SDSU + 3 teams right near the cutoff line, and Utah State is hanging around as well. Bubble followers will be watching this conference.

I'll start doing that bubble watch in a few weeks again- seemed like folks liked it I thought.

MWC hasn’t won a single NCAA tournament game in many years despite getting multiple bids every year or so it seems. You have to wonder if they’ve got teams on the bubble, if that history works against them.

I don't get too excited about seeds, but I do wonder what Hall would need to do to push closer to the bubble.

I know before yesterday Seton Hall was the 11th team out. So maybe now about the 4th or 5th team out???

12-8, don't lose to Georgetown is what Hall likely needs to have a chance.

[Wizard of Westroads]

The Hall isn't really that far off right now. Bracketville has them 11th seed out, but plenty of opportunities to add to their resume. With a KenPom ranking of 50 and a road win at Rutgers, I'd guess they'd be there if they go 7-4 the rest of the way in the BE and one win in the BET.

I'd be willing to bet either the Hall or the Johnnies makes it. StJ has the UConn win and a better record, but their noncon schedule was weak. Sitting at 1-6 in Q1/Q2, while SH is 3-7.

Sha’s players seem to be playing hard for him and with what he did in March last year with St Peters I like his chances to make a deep run with Hall. He had one of the best “In the huddle” bits I’ve ever seen…

They updated it this morning. 5th team out right now.....

All the teams in right now:
Xavier 9 (top 3 seed)
Marquette 15 4 seed
UConn 16 4 seed
Providence 19 5 seed
Creighton 42(last team with a bye) 11 seed

Seton Hall 5th team out
St John's 16th team out

5 teams in and none in that pit of misery.

3 Xavier
4 Marquette
4 UCONN
6 Providence
8 Creighton

Seton Hall not in his first 8 out yet

[Hall2012]

That loss to Siena's going to be tough to overcome. If that was a win, .500 in the Big East might have been enough.
