Would wake forest be more likely to go to philly or miami, provided both
spots are available?

I don't really think anything is a given. I wouldn't say it's a given that
UConn ends up in Philly (though pretty likely). Nova can play there as
anything from an 11-up.

Is it a given that the 3rd nc acc team will go to philly? Or could they end
up in miami?

If the non-uconn philly pod is a non- big east team (say a 3 seed), then
nova could play in philly (say a 6 seed), correct?

Heard back from the NCAA. They changed their mind. Nova can play in
Philly.

They didn't give me any details, but perhaps they are saying the spectrum is
part of it. I don't really know. I merely asked if Nova could play in
Philly in the tournament and they said they could not.

I thought that nova kept ithe number of games at the wach under the max.
They played pitt at the spectrum instead of the wachovia center to keep
themselves eligible.

I believe a team is allowed 3 games at a venue, more than 3 makes them
ineligible. Nova plays louisville (1/10), syracuse (2/07) and gtown (2/28)
at the wachovia. Pitt was not at the wachovia, it was at the spectrum. Texas
was at msg, towson and uri were at the palestra. Marquette will be played on
campus.

Has the ncaa ruled that the spectrum counts as the wachovia? I know this has
been an issue for discussion in the past, but I thought the decision went
the other way? They are not the same arena.

Thanks again.

Apparently, Nova played too many. I asked the NCAA today to double check
and they say Villanova can't play there.

Jerry,

In your host site information, why is villanova listed as a host team in
philly along with saint joseph's (pa)? I thought sjuofpa was the host site,
and nova played few enough games at the wachovia to be eligible to play
there first weekend?

Thanks

Because when the bracket was done, Providence was only three games over in
the league and hadn't beaten anyone competent all year. ND and Georgetown
were only one game under.

But, in general, no conference's standings are less meaningful than the Big
East's, even in March, because of wildly unbalanced schedules. Also, in
general, January conference standings are not particularly useful because
not enough games have been played.

Jerry ,

How come you have two teams under .500 in the Big East at 3-5 ( Notre
Dame and Georgetown ) but you don't have a team over that is 4 games
over .500 ( Providence ) in your Brackett ?
