Joe Lunardi’s Latest Bracket Math Released

Joe Lunardi released an updated bracket a week ago today, the ESPN guru’s first bracketology release since the season started. On Monday night, Lunardi released his latest Bracket Math and Providence, as well as a few other Big East teams, had good showings on the seed list. Joey Brackets had both Xavier and Villanova as 3 seeds last week and that hasn’t changed this week, except that the Musketeers have jumped ahead of the Wildcats on the seed list.

ESPN’s Joe Lunardi Releases His Preseason 2015-16 Bracketology

Early August means preseason bracketology, because why not? ESPN’s Joe Lunardi has released his preseason bracket and the Big East has 5 teams in the field of 68.

The ACC leads the way with 9 teams in the field followed by the SEC, Pac 12, Big 12 and Big Ten getting 6 teams each. The American (4) and Atlantic 10 (2) are the other multi-bid leagues in Lunardi’s bracket.

Here are the notable Big East results from Lunardi’s preaseson bracket:
