Big East

How good is the Big East that St. John's cant win a conference game in our conference but is undefeated in the ACC lol. Great job Johnnies

Always thought the Johnnies were better than their record but didn’t see this coming. Congratulations to them.

In all seriousness I hate that X is in tight games with the bottom of this conference. However, I may need to reconsider my stance. Maybe the Big East is just that much better than the ACC, SEC and so on. Top to bottom this has to be the best conference in America where any win is good. It may be getting to the point where it's the Big 12 and Big East then everyone else.

Enjoy it while it lasts folks. According to several RPI sites the BIGEAST has the best conference RPI! How sweet it is!

The Kansas loss helps but I'd be willing to bet that St John's and Georgetown would have better records in other top conferences. St. John's may be top 5 in the Big 10

Lunardi just tweeted the new #1 seed. Xavier. Holy shit...

Process of elimination. There is noone else. Hell UC may be flirting with a 2 seed now

The AAAAAAC's seed ceiling is a 5.

Auburn is in the mix.

X has 2 big road games before the NCAA reveals the current top 16 teams on Feb 11th.

Win both X will be the 4th #1 seed (which means out West though)

Win 1 of the 2 and Auburn wins out until then Auburn might get it.

Or maybe they still give it to Kansas or Duke who knows.

Bad timing for 2 tough road games need both to be assured of the #1 seed come Feb 11th.

Last year they did the reveal on the Saturday before all the Sat games this year they are doing it on Sunday after all those Saturday games. Things can change based off that 1 game for sure.

It will be very interesting to see where Cincinnati is seeded come Feb 11th. I feel like they should be a 5 seed right now as of today they have no wins vs for sure at large teams. If they are seeded 4 or even 3 on Feb 11th well then we know all the committee is doing is counting "group 1 and 2 wins" as a number instead of who you are actually beating they have 4 "group 1" wins but none vs sure fire at large teams.
