There haven't be many 5 game days this year have there? Should be a lot of fun.

I guess Heron is scared of providence or it’s just bad luck, cause I don’t think he practiced yesterday and his status is up in the air

[Hall2012]

Massive, massive game today for Seton Hall.

Much like St. John's (big game for them today too), it's generally assumed that 2 more wins and thus a .500 Big East record will get them in the dance.

Unlike St. John's, the Pirates won't be favored to win again this season.

Don’t know how I feel about that, because johnnies seem to play better as underdogs

Huge game for X too. We get this one, we're actually playing for something against Nova on Sunday.

Obviously, we're not favored to win, but after the way we played against Providence, I think the team will come out with a lot of confidence.

playing for what? I mean if they win both of those games X is only 15-13 and really only on the fringe of the NIT field. For X to have ANY hope of an NIT bid- they'd need to go 3-1 next 4 games @ Seton Hall, Villanova, @ St John's, and @ Butler. Then beat St John's last day of the season. That would get them to 17-14 and give them some shot with a BET win of making the NIT.

[LMS]

Nova hasn’t shown up.

[MUPanther]

Xavier up on Seton Hall tied at 44-36. Seton Hall must protect It's home floor for it's bubble hopes.
