Projected Final Big East Standings

[dTRAIN]

Let me preface this with I know we start 3 Freshman and could fall apart at any point. That being said......

For those who love projections, here is how I think the rest of the season will end up:

BC-- @hall, @nd, RU, Cuse, @nova, Hall, Pitt, @ru --w, l, w, w, l, w, w, w
Cuse-- ND, Uconn, @nova, Pitt, @bc, SJU, Prov, @ Uconn--w, w, l, w, l, w, w, l
Pitt--@wvu, SJU, ND, @cuse, @nova, WV, Uconn, @bc, @nd--w, w, w, l, l, w, w, l, l
G-Town--@ru, WVU, @nd, @sju, Nova, @uconn, Prov--w, w, l, w, w, l, w
Uconn--SJU, @ Cuse, @ Prov, @ RU, ND, @pitt, G-Town, Cuse--w, l, w, w, w, l, w, w
ND--@cuse, BC, @pitt, Gtown, @ Prov, @uconn, RU, Pitt--l, w, l, w, w, l, w, w
Nova--Prov, Cuse, @hall, Pitt, BC, @ Gtown, Hall, @sju--w, w, w, w, w, l, w, w
Hall--BC, @ru, SJU, Nova, @wvu, Prov, @bc, @ Nova, WVU--l, l, w, l, l, w, l, l, w
WVU--Pitt, Prov, GU, @sju, Hall, @ Pitt, RU, @hall--l, w, l, w, w, l, w, l
St Johns-- @uconn, @pitt, Hall, WVU, Gtown, @cuse, @ Prov, Nova--l, l, l, l, l, l, l, l
RU--Gtown, Hall, @prov, @bc, Uconn, @wv, @nd, BC--l, w, l, l, l, l, l, l
Prov--@nova, @wvu, RU, Uconn, ND, @hall, @cuse, SJU, gtown--l, l, w, l, l, l, l, w, l

Final Standings
BC 14-2
Cuse 12-4
Uconn 11-5
G-Town 11-5
Nova 11-5
ND 10-6
Pitt 10-6
WVU 6-10
Hall 5-11
St Johns 2-14
RU 2-14
Prov 2-14


This would put us as the 4 seed, playing the 5 Nova in the quarters in the BET.

I know I don't have any real upsets in here, but here is my guess at how we end up. The @ru and home Nova games are huge.

five and two the rest of the way wow i thought i was th eternal optimist and i predicted eight and eight in the big east pre season and they all thoguth i was crazy... i hope youre right but will be tough every one all inclucing the rac and providence who upped our acc big east totals tonite by whupping uva..its tough one at a time hope you are right need to be in that top five to not play on wed werenot deep we dont play on wed and we got a shot . go hoyas good luck with your predictions but on any nite in this league anyone INCLUDING THE HOYAS CAUSE WEREREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE BACKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

I was predicting 5-11 pre-season I will admit. I think 11-5 will be tricky with the Rutgers game being tough & Nova. I think we could easily upset Uconn or ND. 10-6 is where I think we will end up. By the way, possibly the ugliest game ever. Seton Hall plays no perimeter D.

good news for the Rutgers game is they are in a free fall right now. The 30 point home loss and loss to St. Johns have got to make the old coach a little mad up there. I wonder how long they stayed in the locker room this time

Agreed that it seems they are in a bit of a free-fall, but I still think the upcoming trip to the RAC is as dangerous as it looked to be a month ago, as the Knights have nothing to lose and, generally speaking, have loud supportive crowds even when the team is struggling.

A bit of free time on your hands dTRAIN? I guess I could live with 11-5.

ya that must have taken a while look at every single heads up matchup for the rest of the year. i appreciate it though because it gives me a good idea of what to look for the rest of the way for the other teams in the conference, where the possible stumbling blocks are.

I have to agree. This has "trap game' written all over it. Well, as much as a team in fourth place can have a trap game. Point is, Rutgers always plays tough at home, we haven't played well in two weeks, and they just lost their last game with 5 seconds on the clock.

By the way, I see nobody has mentioned this, but...we're NIT eligible.

I was just so giddy afetr the resounding Hall victory.

We really need to win this game tomorrow to keep our NCAA talk going. It is amazing that JTIII has us thinking this way!
