[NU Sports] The Big Dance

[Aaron Ament]

CBS just posted Palm's latest projections:

Last 4 in: Colo St, Ole Miss, N'western, USF. 1st 4 out: Seton Hall, Miami, Iona, Drexel http://t.co/46akiGvO

Lunardi has really had a change of heart overnight and dropped us far down.  Not sure what Iona did yesterday during their day off to jump us in his view or why he moved Miami ahead of us last night after their loss.

I still can't see Seton Hall making the tournament over us, but the consensus seems to be that the Big East is getting 9 or 10 in.  I also see little justification for West Virginia as a lock when their resume is really not that different than ours...too bad the committee only factors in their 10 point loss to Kent St and not their defeat at home to Div 2 Northern KY...

They might not even have had to do the play-in game - so we could say they'd have made it even in a field of 64, before the tourney was artificially inflated. But backing into a play-in game after tanking it in Indy...I'm desperate for a tourney bid, but they just don't deserve it.
