Re: Latest ESPN Bracketology has UC in as #12 seed

[jon breiner]

I was thinking abut this on my drive to work this morning.  With 4 wins in conference, a win over Providence might lock up a berth.  With 5 total wins, Providence would need 6 wins as we'd hold the tiebreaker (assuming they do not use a crazy CUSA type formula!).  A win over UL next Monday combined with a win over Providence locks it up IMO.  No way at all Providence wins 7!  At best I can only see how they get to 6 and that would be them winning every winnable game.

Also, I am not so sure UL will win 6!

As for the NCAA though, unless there is a magic turnaround, forget it.  I see possible wins and think UC must win 4 more to get in.  I think UC will only be favored in 1 game (Providence) the rest of the way.  Maybe they will surprise me though.

  Realistically, UC has a tough road ahead...I've circled Providence as the most important game of the season.  I think they are the team with the best chance to knock them out of the BEast tournament (based on remaining opponents.)
