    2019-20 Big East Conference Play

    Since there has been some good discussions on conference play and expectations, think it’s time to start a thread.

    I can see X going anywhere from 12-6 to 7-11 this year. Can’t remember going into conference play with such uncertainty. Really looking forward to see how it plays out.

    10-8
    Win 2 games in BE tourney

    Get a 7-9 seed.

    Right now X’s best win is Missouri then UConn then UC.

    Hope X loses less than 2 home conference games. It will be brutal for every team

    I agree two home losses has to be the max. Obviously would prefer they run the table at home, at least. But, as mentioned, this is going to be a crapshoot of a season. Let's shoot for it all!

    12 - 6

    Big East Finals

    See what happens.

    9-9 gets the team safely in the tournament so that's what I'm going to go with. There isnt an elite team in the big east this year but the league is extremely deep with very good teams. I wouldn't be shocked to see x finish 1st or 9th.

    Yeah the Big East is pretty open this year, and the team hasn't been really wowing any of us, I definitely think there's a broad range that we can end up in, I see us dropping some games where we think "wtf is going on," but then will pull out some impressive wins too. This should be a tourney team, and I'd like to see 12-6, but I'm not 100% convinced yet we are there.

    Hah! I figure they'll be a turnover machine in the first game against Nova...and then run the table :)
