BET Projections Vol 13 - The Final Season

[Marsh01]

Well things are certainly getting interesting in the BE. Georgetown still holds onto the top spot despite losing to Villanova. Still sketchy on what happens with the 4-5-6 seeds if we beat Georgetown and ND beats Louisville meaning that Marquette with a win would win the BE regular season. We will have to wait until the Pitt-DePaul game (which tips at 4:00 on Saturday) if we win Saturday to know what time we are playing next week.

Should be a wild Saturday,

FIRST ROUND - TUESDAY MARCH 12TH

I bet you're not sketchy on what's going on in the SWAC tourney. I'm a little disappointed.

Actually, I think we do know that if we win on Saturday, we will finish either 4th or 5th, which will mean that as a 5 we play Wed afternoon 2:30 and with a win then play in the 4/5 game Thurs afternoon at 2:30. If we lose, we should finish either 5th or 6th depending on whether ND wins or loses. Is my logic correct or do you think the tie breaker is against the #1 seed and not a head to head matchup.

Thanks for putting that together. Nice job.

I tend to agree that Nova may have sealed a bid with tonight's win but they may need to hope there aren't a lot of conference tournament upsets plus win that first BET game. Their resume is a bit sketchy. 55 rpi. Double digit losses to Alabama (another bubble team), Lasalle (possibly on the bubble), Columbia (What?) and temple (bubble?) plus two losses to PC.

Dude if you want the SWAC updates, just let me know! On speed dial!

first place team tiebreaker only will come into play with a 3 wat tie with us, pitt and ND.

otherwise you are correct.

Do we know what happens if Louisville, Marquette and Georgetown all finish 13-5

Honestly I am not sure. I would think that the 1-3 seeds would remain the same.

their rpi was 55 before the win tonight probably jumps to mid forties since gtown was in top 15.nova is solid unless thye have a bad loss in bigeast tourney

So we're locked into 4, 5, or 6, right? Most likely 5 or 6, since the chances of DePaul beating Pitt are pretty slim?

locked into the 4-5-6 yes.

4 in play if Pitt loses to DePaul
5 in play if we win or ND loses
6 in play if we lose and ND wins

you are correct sir. only way we get the 4 seed and double bye is we beat gtown and depaul beats pitt. not bloody likely.

Here is the season records for Georgetown, Louisville and Marquette if they all finished in a first place tie and they created a mini conference to determine the winner.

Georgetown: vs Marquette (1-1) vs Louisville (1-0) Total 2-1
Louisville: vs Marquette (1-0) vs Georgetown (0-1) 1-1
Marquette: vs Georgetown (1-1) vs Louisville (0-1) 1-2

According to that, I would guess that Georgetown would be awarded the one seed, Louisville the 2 seed and Marquette the 3 seed.

So then if Cuse, ND and Pitt all finished at 12-6

Syracuse: vs ND 1-0 vs Pitt 0-1 Total 1-1
ND: vs Syr 0-1 vs Pitt 1-0 1-1
Pitt: vs Syr 1-0 vs ND 0-1 1-1

Same three teams vs Georgetown (for tie breaking purposes??)

Syr 1-1
ND 0-1
Pitt 1-0

So, I guess we might be considered the five seed.
