This looks pretty good to me although I would flip Creighton and Butler.

Seton Hall has to be biggest surprise. They lost 5 of top 6 players to graduation, 75%+ percent of scoring/rebounding.

Willard early candidate for BE Coach of Year.

[hoya70hoops]

I see us a minimum 9-9 and more exciting to watch than recent years.

There is no a roster on any team that scares me...i think we're a true wildcard. Here's to a Top 4 BE standing, BETourney semfinal berth and Coach Ewing winning BE Coach of the yr, James, Mac, Leblanc all make freshman team, pickett all-conf defense and Govan 1st-Team BE...did i miss anything. Oh and an ncaa berth...at very worst NIT...that equates to a successful season.

I would switch STJ/Nova and GTown/Butler....optimist until I see otherwise...

I’d be so disappointed if we finished in the bottom third of the conference again. We have the talent to be better than that.

[mdtd]

Not much really would shock me. Anyone can beat anyone in this conference, no easy games. Marquette should be first, Nova and St. John's I'd have near the top but that's all I can say. I still think DePaul could finish higher than people expect, they just need their PG to step up.

I really can't figure out Creighton this year, They really looked bad against Nebraska but nice win today. St. John's and Seton Hall was a lot of fun, I could easily see that matchup in the Big East semis or even the Title game. St. John's and Marquette game should also be very good, I am rooting for Marquette since they are the only Big East team ranked. The league is going to be a lot of fun with it being very balanced. Butler was very disappointing against Florida, I was hoping for a better outing than that. I can see the league finishing up something like: Marquette, St. John's, Nova, Seton Hall, Creighton, Providence, Georgetown, DePaul, Butler, Xavier.

Edit 2 - The Big East Semifinals will be must see TV, Hell the whole Big East Tournament will be must see tv.

I don't mean to look ahead on your schedule but I am seeing this coming Saturday CBS is airing Georgetown and St. John's.  I am having serious flashback images of the 80's when that was on CBS.  Is there any type of pick em for the Big East games on your website?

[drquigley]

I want to think we can finish 9-9 but our poor defense, especially on ball defense against opposing guards has me scared. If Cole and Williams can light us up for 52 what will the premier BE guards do to us? That said most of our BE opponents like to run and that lends itself to wide open, high scoring games, the kind we seem to like most.

[Nevada Hoya]

My usual optimistic 18-0.

I like the way you think but I am a bit less optimistic. I am going with 10-8.

[bigelephant]

At best a 10-8 (maybe we eke out an 11-7-but that is hopeful thinking)

edit: I forgot to add a prediction....11-7

[ewingitrust]

Hoyas 13-5 in conference play.

[MassHoya]

If they win tonight 11-7. If not, reverse it to 7-11.

[wponds]

Hoping for these wins:
2X Xavier
2X DePaul
1X PC
1X SJ (Saturday's game)
1X Butler
1X Creighton
1X NOVA or SH

[aristides]

8-10 this year, however my optimism for the 2019-2020 team is already through the roof. Top 25.

OK WITH THAT WIN TONIGHT AND IF MAC AND TREY BACK I PREDICT NINE AND NINE GO HOYAS GETTING BETTER EVERY TIME . IF YOU GET TO THE GYM AND PRACTICE FOUL SHOTS AS JEFF GREEN SAYS THEY CALL THEM FREE FOR A REASON. CANT MISS 14 FOUL SHOTS AND WIN A GAME IN THE BIG EAST OOOPS WE JUST DID THAT HUSTLING FOR FORTY MINUTES OR MORE DOES WONDERS FOR O AND D.
