So these are the BET scenarios I do believe- if any corrections let me know-
Providence- clinched 1st
Nova- clinched 2nd
UConn- clinched 3rd
Creighton-clinched 4th
Marquette -lose vs St John's 6th, else 5th
Seton Hall- Marquette loses to St John's 5th, else 6th
St John's- clinched 7th
Xavier- clinched 8th
Butler- clinched 9th
DePaul- clinched 10th
Georgetown- clinched 11th

so kind of wondering why the league has such a mediocre schedule today? Go back and look preseason- which matchup today would have been the great projected matchup?

Using the preseason projections- here would be the matchups:
1 @ 6
5 @ 8
11 @ 2
10 @ 3
4 @ 9

Not exactly any game that you would have thought is a must watch. Just seems a bit strange.

Nova just suffocating Butler this afternoon.

Gonna suck if/when this blowout home loss results in Butler dropping out of the top 135 NET. Time for a new coach.

I was thinking the same thing, need Butler to stay under 135. Butler probably has the least amount of resources as any team in the Big East, not sure who they could get, most likely some mid major coach.

Richmond leaves injured... that's a rough start.

[Hall2012]

Not realistically gonna win without our top 2 point guards. Only thing that matters now is hoping Richmond gets healthy for the BET because we know Aiken won't.
