A Tougher Road Than You Would Think

Filed under: Uncategorized — Chas @ 8:11 pm

Pitt has 3 losses. A win on Saturday against ‘Nova would give them the Big East Regular Season Championship and the #1 seed in the Big East Tournament. At the risk of peeking ahead, the Tourney could create an interesting road for Pitt. A Syracuse fan lays out the likely scenario of how the conference will shake out and the seedings. Looking at the seedings, it looks like Pitt could end up playing the only teams to beat it all season in the tournament. Like this.

Pitt would get a first round bye. They would face the winner of the 8/9 game which would appear to be Seton Hall vs. WVU. Seton Hall beat Pitt on February 10.

If Pitt won that game, they would face the winner of Syracuse vs. the 5/12 team. Syracuse also beat Pitt — in case you had somehow forgotten.

If Pitt made it to the Championship game, it could end up facing a third game against UConn — the third and only other team Pitt lost to.

I can’t imagine that would happen too often.

UPDATE: Projections changed. Rutgers blew a game on Wednesday to VT, and now even if they beat Seton Hall on Sunday, Seton Hall will be the #7 seed.
