For the first time in the 45-year history of the Big East Conference, a team went over 5 games over .500 in conference play and did not make the NCAA Tournament. That team is Seton Hall.
@John_Fanta Big East shown absolutely no respect despite having 3 teams in the top 10 for a good part of the season...
@John_Fanta Pretty clear the Big East is now a Mid-Major conference.
@John_Fanta They would be big favorites over Michigan State at a neutral site. How the hell was Texas a 7? Texas didn’t do anything.
@John_Fanta I'm looking forward to the 3 teams making deep runs, and the coaches being consistently vocal about the strength of the conference
@John_Fanta Wild disrespect towards the big east from this committee to UConn getting the hardest draw. Not a good look for Val and the conference leadership
@John_Fanta Seton Hall and St John’s got screwed. The Big East is intentionally being slighted because they don’t have football. It’s politics and money. Awful.
@John_Fanta Seton Hall also beat the #1 overall seed. What gives @MarchMadnessMBB ??
@John_Fanta @JRbroadcaster Your thoughts, John, as to why the Pirates - and, for that matter, St. John's and @PCFriarsmbb - were snubbed by the committee. Dayton? SIX teams from the Mountain West?
