Conference Champ – Villanova
Conference champ and potential Final Four repeat visitor.
Yes, The Wildcats lost their starting point guard and center but they return
most else and have some clutch shooters to hang plenty of points on the rest of
the nation. I think the key to this team is Phil Booth replacing
some of the ball handling duties left vacant by Ryan Arcidiacono. In
addition to Villanova the Big East has a second potential Final Four team in
the Xavier Musketeers. It’s going to completely depend on the status of
currently suspended Myles Davis, but if he is cleared this is a top 10
team. No sneaking up on anybody this year. So, there are two top 4
seeds right there; what else does the Big East have to offer? Butler
looks locked in at a bid right around the 9-10 level along with a resurgent
Creighton. That puts us at 4 bids for the Big East but ultimately I think
they get 5. That last spot is going to be between Seton Hall and
Marquette. Both have questions…Seton Hall lost its best player and
Marquette has 1 player taller than 6’6” with experience. Unfortunately
for us I think the Hall wins out in the end.
At-Large: Xavier 3 seed
At-Large: Butler 9 seed
At-Large: Creighton 10 seed
At-Large: Seton Hall 12 seed
