Who will be the Big East favorite for 2014?

I think it is gonna be a four horse league mainly, Xavier, Georgetown, Marquette and Villanova. This year was a down year for x but they will be back and strong next year. I tend to agree the Creighton and butler will be in for a shock. Remember Xavier has been scheduling up in out of conference games for years so I don't think there will be any shock or adjustments needed.

I really hope Saint Louis and Richmond are added for 2013, so we can have more expanded discussions on next year. It would be fun.

Bring them on x is 30-14 vs stl and 13-5 vs Richmond

Xavier has not scheduled more difficult OOC than Butler (hell, basically no one has over an extended period of time)

Go ahead and look it up.... Kenpom.com

(Xavier should be around 6th or 7th, btw. And that's assuming everyone is back which is probably unreasonable due to the historically weak draft is going to encourage early entrants -- hint, hint)

hahah yeah yeah, it'd still be fun to have 2 more storylines. SLU coming off the A-10 title and Richmond bringing back a vast majority of their contributors. Not to mention a 12 team tourney would be better. I just hope we get it in 2013 and don't have to wait a year.

I beg to differ on that. Butler has 2 -3 tough games a year the past couple of seasons out of conference.

Btw Xavier is 31-17 vs butler all time

Well, I'm not positive, but I would bet the last ten years or so X has had bigger names and better teams on their ooc than butler. I mean, yeah this year was not a great year because of some of the teams we had on there kind of stunk it up, as did we. But come on, look it over. You guys have a had a few good seasons. We've been doing this for thirty years now. Don't think we don't remember the clock incident. Was happy to have you join the a-10, now the big east. Love the rivalry.

Forgot to add the lol at the end to the butler fan. But I really don't think you've seen our out of conference schedules.

Yes, I'm quite aware that you don't know. That's pretty obvious in how insanely incorrect you were, but we appreciate the clarification.

Good luck on your next game. Err, wait. Well, good luck.

About the OOC schedules. Can we get some actual stats instead of just trolling each other?
