Fantastic. Let’s hope all of our teams make some notice this March now.

Highest we've been since 1978. That gap lasted longer than blockbuster

Great job Marquette! Good timing too, would be nice for a team to move up to a 2 seed in the Tournament. I think a few teams would if they win out (win their final game/s and then win the Big East Tournament). That way the league could get some coverage for National Champion contenders these next couple weeks.

like how the Bracketville guy brought up last week I guess it was- the recent committees haven't been giving much benefit to league tournaments. Not much of an upswing for a run there. I think Marquette has a chance given where they are. UConn and Xavier not really sure they could get there.

I'd say Marquette and UConn would get up to a 2 seed if they win out. Xavier would be more of a coin flip. We'll see, it also depends on which teams they'll play in the BET and how teams from other conferences perform.

VHS tapes? I was thinking more like Betamax tapes.
