Sun Dec 16th 2018 - (2) Big East Games...

[vtwarrior]

10-0!! First time in 36 years.

Won by 10+ points, too. Third straight 10+ point win.

Capping at 10:
Loyola (MD) +10
Bowling Green +4
Rutgers +10
Cal +3
VCU +1
UMES +10
Georgia Tech +3
Mt. St. Mary's +10
Princeton +10
Wagner +10

Will we falter during Big East play? Who knows, but I'm going to enjoy the winning. Incredible start to the season!

It is all about "NET".....The NCAA's "new" grading system.....St. John's has a problem.....There is a reason why they are not ranked at this time.....Even the services are following "NET" loosely.....

Bracketology has St.Johns as a 9 or 10 seed.....Which is OK....But at 10-0 that would be a ranking in previous years......Shoot...They have Furman at 12-0 and Q1 win on the road at Villanova and beating Loyola of Chicago and they are "next four out".....

This NET thing is BS.....and it will effect the Big East significantly in a down year.....

Not saying I agree.....But it is what it is.....

Can a mod check if this guy is posting from Stever's IP?

I know all about NET, I started the NET thread and have been updating it. St. John's is currently #30, which is great. What am I missing here? I'm not projecting them as a top seed.

A strong Big East means nothing to me this year, since St. John's did excellent OOC last year and lost 11 in a row once Big East play started (due to injuries and brutal competition). We would've made the Tournament had we been in a weaker conference. Watching our team, we're better off this year with lighter competition. We're not going to beat many top teams, and last year we had far too many of those games. Sorry to the rest of the league but I am happy it is a down year. Time for the Johnnies to take control for once.

Anyways, I'd be thrilled just to make the Tournament, regardless of seed. Remember the starved fan base you're talking with, here.
