Welcome to The Holy Land of Hoops

What do you all think? will it happen?

Undefeated regular season. i think the second XU game will be very close but VU still wins. either XU or PC for BET

The X Baby! The X! Can't wait!!!

It's not good for the Big East if Nova goes undefeated... because if they Flop again in the 2nd Round in only speaks terribly of the conference.

Nova @ X is the game to watch this year. Hype it up from now!!!

Yeah I really, really don't want to see Nova go undefeated. It'd make the conference look weak, which is unfair considering Nova was ranked #4 in the conference at the start of play.

If Nova goes undefeated the expectation would be a Final 4 berth minimum, which is really hard to do.

I'd like to see X get a 1 seed and win the conference. They reached the Sweet 16 last year so there wouldn't be as much pressure to make the Final 4. If X is a 1 seed you won't have all the analysts reminding everyone of their tournament performances the last few years.

They've lost 3 of their last 4 away from the Pavilion against Seton Hall, so let's keep that trend going Wednesday night.

Villanova and Xavier need to lose a couple games if the Big East wants to get 5 or 6 bids so I will be rooting against both of them. Sure, they might lose a seed or two but if it means two more teams in the tourney, Im all for it.

I think the Friars have an excellent chance this weekend. Game is at the WFC, where we are nowhere near as dominant as in the Pavilion.

Last year was the year for establishing that we can put more than half the league in the dance.

This is the year to establish we can have multiple high end teams. (Actually, 2014 was okay for that too, but nova and Creighton fell in the dance). New milestones every year.

I think even Villanova fans need to root against Nova for a few games.... to save themselves of potential embarrassment. It will be ugly if Nova goes undefeated and has an early exit. Ugly for everyone involved in this conference.

Not as ugly as being stuck playing in AAC, however.
