IF Pitt Wins are they a *lock* for the Big Dance?

[Chi_archie]

barring injury or cataclysmic slide?

with their quality wins and loses I think it puts them over the top given their sched coming up.

great team to fade in early rounds if they make it.

Dixon is a top 5 coach for getting it done with a team with a huge lack of top end talent this year.

top ten?

What's their other quality win, GTown I guess. Their OCC schedule was atrocious, played Michigan yeah but then the sisters of the poor for every other game. If they win this game which they won't, they would probably be in at the moment.

IF they lose they'll be 5-5 in Big East play....

and going 5-3 in their remaining games against a weak sched would make them a lock. going 4-4 would still prob get them in.

going 3-5 and having a 2 or 3 win Big East Tourney run would get them in

Who knows, 10-8 or 9-9 in a down Big East with that OOC schedule would be close. Depends on the other bubble teams and luckily I don't have to worry about that stuff anymore. Gotta win at Cincy or Marquette I'd think to have another solid road win.

Who knows, 9-7 or 8-8 in a down Big East with that OOC schedule would be close. Depends on the other bubble teams and luckily I don't have to worry about that stuff anymore. Gotta win at Cincy or Marquette I'd think to have another solid road win.

Bracketology dude Lunardi has Pitt in as an 8 seed now, along with 7 other "Down" Big East school

[Cuse0323]

Cool, and you think they should be in if they go 4-4 with the wins being against Seton Hall, St. John's, South Florida and DePaul? Would leave them with a win over Georgetown. Down year across CBB if Pitt is an 8 seed. Gonna be an embarrassing tourney for the Big East with some of these teams in on the way out, fitting way to end I suppose.

yeah after they win today.

4-4 gives them 10-8 in the conf and I can't remember a team in the BE not getting in with a 10-8 record since the expansions started

We didn't get in 06-07 with a 10-6 record because our OOC schedule awful and had one good win against GTown at home.

Love this Quote from Boeheim after the game...

"I think they're a really good team," Boeheim said. "I thought all year long they were. I saw them earlier in the year and I thought they'd be leading the league right now. I think they've got a really good team. They're good defensively and they're good offensively. I think they'll be difficult to beat the rest of the way. I'd be surprised if they lose many games. They're the best team we've played, without any question. It's not even close.

Classic Jimmy, he inflates teams before we play them and especially after we lose. You can pull up any of his press conferences after we lose and he will have said the same thing.

Pitt has no worries as far as getting in the tourney. They COULD do some damage too if they get 6 or 7 seed.

[Chi_archie]

Lunar do now had Pitt as 6 seed.

without any real stars, just a big group of team ball guys this team like usual us built for conference play and not post season play and won't go far

[Chi_archie]

lock it up!!!!!!

[hockey216]

last year they shit bed defensively and in net during playoffs

[Chi_archie]

who put this in the hockey sub-forum?



go Penguins! James Neal and Chris Kunitz rule!

[Chi_archie]

nice road win by Pitt

still not a team that can rely on any one player to take over a game, which is needed in the Big Dance.

I guess they are IN officially with 1 win out of 3 vs unranked big east teams

[Chi_archie]

come on 4th seed in the Big East Tourney!!!!
