The jury's out on Memphis in-conference IMO. Not sold on how well they will handle the step up in competition.

even if they go 10-8(probably absolutely the worst case scenario)- they should have no problem getting in. A win like tonight is huge for them vs Oklahoma St.

The BE could have helped itself better this weekend, we didn't. Long season. Let it play out before we all start predicting the tourney field. Even DePaul has a shot at this point.

Central, NC State, Appalachian State, Campbell, Mass-Lowell and Kennesaw State. Not exactly Murderers Row. NC State is a nice victory but they are only expected to finish in 11th place in the ACC this year. The Bearcats will be playing New Mexico, Xavier and Pitt in the next couple of weeks.
This weekend was definately disappointing for the Big East. I thought we would do better than 7-10 from Friday through Sunday's games.
