This post will serve as the recap and Thoughts from the Road: Church Pew Edition. I attended a wedding during the game and was following the game tracker on my phone, during the mass — sorry I’m not sorry Bridget — and only got a chance to actually watch the game on New Year’s Day. Big thanks to FriarTV for having the recap available at his site.

Jerry Palm of CBSSports.com has updated his bracket for the second time in-season and Providence, as well as some of their Big East compatriots, keeps getting better placement. In Palm’s preseason bracket, Providence was a 9 seed and he was higher than some others on the Friars at that point. In his last update on December 16th, Providence moved up to a 3 seed. The Friars have moved up again in Palm’s bracket out today.
After 33 days of college basketball games, Jerry Palm has released his first updated bracketology since before the season began on November 13th. Palm was pretty bullish on Providence and had placed the Friars as a 9 seed in his preseason bracket. With the Friars off to a 10-1 start over those 33 days, Palm is even higher on Ed Cooley’s bunch than Joe Lunardi, who has Providence as a 5 seed in his latest release of Bracket Math. Palm also calls for 5 Big East teams to be in his field of 68.
