I don't think they were overrated... just beat up on themselves throughout the season.  Kinda gets tiring by the end of the year.  (Let me also add I may feel that way because St. Johns and Pitt really let me down)


Welcome Jody, but that excuse gets old year after year.


LOL!! Very true. The bottom line is they sent 11 teams to the tourney and, so far, only 4 have made it to the Sweet 16.
Marquette (lucky surprise), UConn, and who else?

It was Marquette vs. Syracuse.  Even the Big East couldn't lose that matchup.  Cheesy

I just checked the bracket and those are the only two I recognized.  Notre Dame is still playing but were losing the last I heard.

Right. As of now, they have put 2 in the Sweet 16,--the same as the SEC. BTW, ND losing by 10. LOL

It was also UConn vs. Cincinnati.  Another one were the Big East had to win.  So the only 2 to advance so far were in games with another Big East team and one of them had to win.

We've all seen SEC teams lose head to head in the tourney. Come tourney time it is every man (team) for themselves.

Sir Charles was trashing the Big East again after the Tx - Arizona game.  He was being a jerk, but he was right.

Yeah, I misspoke. I meant the best they could do was to place 4 in the Sweet 16 at this stage of the Tourney. FSU is giving Notre Dame fits. I had ND in the Final Four.

Sure but my point is that if they had not been playing amongst themselves they could very well be 0 for 11 instead of 2 for 11, which is bad enough.

LOL!! Well, right now you're getting our wish. FSU is slaping them around like a $2 ho.     Shocked

I guess if you put your whole conference in the tournament, playing yourselves is bound to happen.

I agree with Charles Barkely, these teams got in on Name alone. They should have only had 8 teams in the tourney. RTR!
