Providence is my upset pick of the first round. Seton Hall could upset Marquette. They almost did the first time but the second time it wasn't that close. We'll see. I also think Notre Dame could potentally go to the Final. Georgetown is my pick to win.
can't see the hall beating marquette, don't see wvu losing to providince, but efejuku is a freak. i think notre dame falters at the garden, they are lights out at home. i think gtown takes it, they are as solid as big roy is a big vag.

I'm just happy UC made it this season. They match up fairly well with Pitt (split two games this season), but the biggest thing I'll be looking for is how they respond after the ass kicking UConn handed them.
Cuse went down to Nova in the first game 82-63 I say the bubble should officially be renamed the Orange Line

Oh, what the fuck. I give up. I'm rooting for the Knicks from now on. At least I know they'll consistently suck.

UC's lack of Big East talent showed and they lost to Pitt 70-64 Marquette held off the Hall with a 67-54 win. That means no upsets on Day 1 of the Big East Tourney.
