They played there way in back in 2005 with a run to the BE title game.. maybe they do the same this year.

They need to beat a Pitt or a Georgetown in the tourney.

Your not following the bracket rules.. you might not care at this point (which would make perfect sense), but just one more thing to complicate your daily update.

Teams that have met in the regular season cannot meet up until sweet 16, and conference teams cannot meet up until the elite eight.

Yeah, you're prolly right. I only know some of them...could you post some of the rules for me? Thanks

2 main ones are:
1. Conference teams cannot meet until elite eight.
2. Teams that met in the regular season cannot meet until sweet sixteen.

They can be a real hassle.... worry about them on the last brackets/

And

#3. Teams cannot play on courts that are within 15 miles of the center of their campus. (I think its 15 miles?)

I got this off Lunardi's bracketology FAQ...

One change worth repeating for 2006-07 is that teams from the same conference may now meet as early as the second round of the Tournament. Previously, teams from the same conference could not meet before a regional final. This change is designed the give the committee more flexibility as it brackets what could be record number(s) of teams from the new mega-conferences.

Yeah that is the new Big East rule.
