Last Monday ESPN’s Joe Lunardi came out with his 1st edition of “Bracket Math”. This Monday CBS Sports’ Jerry Palm came out with his 1st edition of his Bracketology since doing a pre-season bracketology.
Palm’s bracket has 6 Big East teams in the field of 68 with seeds ranging from 2-12. While Lunardi’s bracket through games on December 7th had 7 Big East teams in the field, Palm has had the chance to remove Providence following their loss at home to Brown. He has also pumped up St. John’s and Seton Hall.
The 6 Big East teams are:

I know you’ve all been waiting with baited breath to get a glimpse of my official bracket. As a preface, I don’t think I’ve ever won a bracket pool in my life. I look forward to the ridiculing and comments. Let’s jump right in:

Brackets have been announced and PC managed to avoid a first round play-in game by winning last night. Xavier did draw that fate and will take on NC State. The Friars are an 11 seed and will be playing the 6 seed North Carolina Tarheels. They are in the East region playing in San Antonio. Being in the East region is important because if you look WAY ahead, the Elite 8 in the East region will be played at Madison Square Garden. There are also potential matchups against Villanova or UConn down the line in that Elite 8. But obviously beating the 6 seeded Tarheels will be a massive undertaking. I’ll have a full review of UNC early in the week followed by a full game preview of this game on Wednesday or Thursday. Ed Cooley and the Friars are playing with house money at this point but that won’t change their motivation. This team is on a mission and they aren’t going to be happy just to have made the Big Dance, they want to make history.
ESPN’s Joe Lunardi came out with his new bracket today and he has PC as the 3rd of the “First Four Out” category. Lunardi currently has a total of 3 Big East teams in -Villanova, Creighton and Xavier – with SJU and PC in the “First Four Out” and Georgetown in the “Next Four Out” category.
CBS Sports’ Jerry Palm came out with his new bracket last night at 9:26pm. He has PC in the tournament as a 12 seed in a First Round play in game against Tennessee in the South Region. Palm also has Villanova, Creighton and Xavier in but lists Georgetown in his last four out while not listing St. John’s.
I’ll have a full Bracketology update on Thursday at noon as I do every week.
