Bracketology Update: Joe Lunardi’s Updated Bracket #pcbb

Leave a comment

ESPN’s Joe Lunardi came out with his new bracket today and he has PC as the 1st of the “First Four Out” category. Lunardi currently has a total of 3 Big East teams in with SJU and PC in the “First Four Out” and Georgetown in the “Next Four Out” category. It looks like, depending on how this last week of the regular season and the Big East Tournament go, the Big East could get as many as 6 in and as few as 3.

I’ll have a full Bracketology update on Thursday at noon as I do every week.

Bracketology Update: Joe Lunardi’s Updated Bracket #pcbb

Leave a comment

ESPN’s Joe Lunardi came out with his new bracket today and he has PC as a 12 seed in a First Round Play-in game in the Midwest bracket (Indianapolis) playing Oklahoma State. Lunardi currently has a total of 5 Big East teams in with SJU and PC in the last 4 in category and Georgetown in the next 4 out category. It looks like, depending on how this last couple weeks of the season go, the Big East could get as many as 6 in and as few as 3.

Lunardi lists PC’s chances as a coin toss right now to get into the NCAA tournament:

LAST FOUR IN
ODDS
FIRST FOUR OUT
ODDS
NEXT FOUR OUT
ODDS
St. John’s
55%
 Minnesota
40%
Oregon
35%
Providence
50%
Richmond
35%
Georgetown
35%
Tennessee
55%
Dayton
35%
Nebraska
30%
Oklahoma State
45%
Florida State
40%
Southern Miss
30%

LAST FOUR IN: These teams are being squeezed at both ends. They don’t want to be caught from behind, of course, but they also want to move up and secure a first-round bye. Dayton is their most likely destination.

In my opinion, the Friars need to get to 21 wins to dance. I’ll have a full Bracketology update on Thursday at noon as I do every week.
