Syracuse fighting Pitt for Buffalo/NYC

[pfister1]

Is it a foregone conclusion that we could not be in the East as a #2 or #3 seed?

I understand that if we go into the selection process as the first or second #1 on the S curve are likelihood of ending up in MSG is substantially higher, just not sure why everyone is so afraid of Pitt all of a sudden??

I think everyone is caught up in MSG being the site this year. In 03 we were in the east as a 3, last year we were in the east as a 4. We could be in the east from almost any seed line.

Our odds are definitely better as a 1 to get msg, but beyond that there is still a chance we get MSG.

my point is if we drop two games to pitt they could snag msg from us, its a fair point

It's all in good fun, gilard.

Look, why worry too much about MSG or 1 seeds when there is so much of the season left to be played? So much can and will happen between now and the end of the regular season. There could be a number of teams fighting for those spots, not just the 2 you are worried about now.
