With the brackets set and Nova, Provy, Xavier, Butler & Seton Hall in, we all become cheerleaders of the big east.
I think Providence and Butler win their first games and I only give Provy a shot against UNC. I am not sure Butler can beat UVA.
Seton Hall is on a tear and I think they beat Gonzaga and then have to bring it against Utah. Very tough second game for them but I think they could be sweet 16 bound.
Xavier should be in the sweet 16 playing Weber and likely Wisconsin. West Virginia in the sweet 16 is going to be really tough but I have Xavier in the final four.
Nova should easily win their first round. I was not impressed with Asheville. A Philly rematch against Temple gets Nova in to the 2nd weekend. Although Miami/Arizona are very beatable, I think that is the end of the road for Nova without a 100% healthy Ochefu.
It would be great for the conference if we can get to 5-0 in the opening round and 8-2 in the opening weekend. We could really use three teams in the second weekend.
