RE: Depaul Beating Syracuse by 40

[Joshua Rexhausen]

No because Syracuse split with 'Nova if they win the last game, the tiebreaker rules seem to say if you played an uneven number of games, 1-1 does not beat 0-1, because you could have been 1-1 if you had played two games.  So it does get down to DePaul.

If both win, Syracuse gets the 8 seed because of their win over Villanova.  (It doesn't matter now what Seton Hall does.  The Syracuse loss last night locked Seton Hall into the 7 seed.)  If both lose, Syracuse gets the 8 seed because of their win over West Virginia, unless Louisville and/or Rutgers wins to create a 3 or 4 way tie.  But even then, if I understand the Big East tiebreaking procedure correctly, Syracuse would end up the 8 seed and UC the 9 seed.
   
  UC needs to win tomorrow, for lots of reasons.  After last night, it's hard to imagine Syracuse beating Villanova, even with them being clearly on the bubble.

For the Big East Tournament, I think the only way Syracuse gets the 8 and we get the 9 is if Syracuse wins and UC loses.  And by my calculations it comes down to us beating Depaul and them losing to Depaul.  There is no way we get anything but the 8 or 9 seed, so it looks like we get syracuse in the first round. and we get Uconn or 'Nova in the second round depending on their last games. The 4-5-12 should be G'town, Pit, Rutgers or 'Ville.  If 'Ville and Rutgers lose their last game, and ND, StJ, and Providence win their last, the 10-11-12 seeds go ND, StJ, 'Ville
