We are an 8 seed "Georgetown The Hoyas were last year's darling, and probably gave Illinois its closest nationally-televised test until Iowa came to Champaign. So why isn't anyone talking about Georgetown this year? The Big East, as we know, is very deep, and there's certainly room for seven or even a record eight teams to make the NCAA's at the end of the season. The Hoyas' conference schedule is pretty soft (Cincinnati, Pitt, and Syracuse are all home games), and there are a couple of big-name nonconference scalps there for the taking (Illinois again, Oregon, and Duke). Brandon Bowman and Ashanti Cook are back, and so is the buzz in the DC area. It may spread across the nation with a couple Georgetown upsets." collegehoopsnet.com/Is it my imagination or are we doing better in those preseason picks that are being released late? Have we become a trendy pick?

I think the analysts are finally waking up to the reality the GTOWN IS BACK!
also 6 big east teams in the top 32 teams in the tourney not bad looks liek we could defeintly get two more in the bottom 32 and break the record of teams in the tourney.

I think that amongst those that closely follow the sport - yes we are becoming a sexy pick. But that is a double-edged sword with a young team. Its JTIII's job to keep them from reading their media clippings and getting over-confident.
