Is this game now extremely important?
If we lose, we are likely not going to the NCAA tourney because our record basically shows only one good win (UCLA). If we win, we still maybe need one more win in the BE tourney to completely put a lock on a spot in the Big Dance.
Either way, a game against the Big East's shittiest team in 2007 is going to tell a lot about our post season future.
I can't believe they beat us earlier this year.

I think the loss to them earlier in the year may have as much to do with not making the tourney as if we win this time.

The game is very important.
I think a win here actually only fives us the chance to win a game in the BE Tourney which will put us in. A loss, and we would have to go very deep into the tourney to even get a chance.

nice win, i think we're in, barring a wipe-out defeat at the garden, if its even a competitive game, we're in. If we win one game in the BET, its without a doubt

Well, we won convincingly. It can't be a bad thing. We need at least one win in New York. If we win two, we're a lock in my opinion. If we just win one we can get in based on what happens elsewhere. If we lose in the first round, I think it's iffy. I'm not seeing it the same as you, gl.

Dickie V has us as a lock according to his comments at the end of the Pitt/Marquette game.

I think we're pretty much in now, but one win in the BET would be a lock, IMO.
I think it's hard to leave a 21 win team from the BE out of the tournament, however, even if we lose the 1st round game in NY. We only have a couple decent wins though (UCLA & Nova). Depaul (I guess) would rank as our 3rd best, and that's not saying too much.

As matt said, Dicky V kept saying that we are in, but I have my doubts. I think we need to win the first round game to get in.

Well, we might be in if they had to pick right now..... but since we have to play BET games, if we were to add another loss to our resume, that might put us out. We may not "Need" the win, but certainly couldnt take the loss.
