who are the 2 teams the cats could face?

USF (15) or the (10) Marquette/Uconn (don't remember the tiebreaker when you split the series, believe Marquette would get it because they beat ND the higher team in the standings) possibly Nova (they beat Marquette but lost to Uconn)?

None of them an easy matchup. I think Villanova would be the worst possible outcome for UC. We have to hope they pull it out against Pitt.

As it stands now I believe we'd play the Nova/USF winner at 7 PM on Wed.

Errr....we might get Providence if they lose to Rutgers (since USF beat them head to head). I don't know anymore.

I saw this on a Hoya board. Up-to-date BE bracket:

Good thing... no noon tips!

Would love to play West Virginia in the semifinals (who am I kidding, I'd just love to be in the semi-finals).

I'd like another crack at Villanova without the homering in that bandbox.

Who would you rather face, Nova or Marquette?

Away from their court, Marquette. But I have a score to settle with Jay Wright and his $4,000 suits.

So I should be rooting for Nova or not? I have to know what my rooting interest is in the last 10 minutes of this game!

YOU have a score to settle with Jay Wright?

How bout USF/Providence knocks off either or takes them to 6OT's? We will still be fresher going into the match-up having the bye.

Root for them to lose to Pitt. If so, UC finishes 2 games ahead of them. That has a nice ring to it.

I'd love to play Nova again too. I just hope they get their bad shooting out of their system in the first game.

So since UConn and Villanova have the same record, but UConn won head to head, doesn't that mean we'll play UConn now?

Marquette is playing SH and losing 23-14 right now. They could finish 9-9 too.

Let's hope so. Facing UConn in the Big East tourney is not a reward for a great season!

I think we get Uconn.

What happens if Marquette loses to Seton Hall?
