Predictions for Big East teams in the NCAA tournament?

My votes: 
Most likely to reach Sweet 16:  Nova, UConn
Most likely to be upset:  Providence
Will be lucky to win one game:  Seton Hall
Should win a game but no optimisim after that:  Marquette, Creighton

Agree with first three, but also leaning towards first round losses for Creighton & Marquette and think Seton Hall may eke out that one win.  
 
 Vegas joining the LMF/MM52 Providence disrespect club.

Tho once the tournament starts I root for my conference. Even U Conn

No disrespect from me towards Providence; I've always thought they could/should go far in the tournament as a deep, mature team with multiple scorers.

Ridiculous that Michigan, indiana and Rutgers all make the tournament, and ridiculous high seeding for Michigan state.  Hurt Xavier or Oklahoma getting in.  Hope st john's doesn't get bumped out of NIT now

and it looks like Texas A&M should have gotten in too.
 
Fun game between Wright State and Bryant. Announcers said Kiss can play next season for Bryant if he wants. He played one year for Quinnipiac sat out a transfer year at Rutgers, played a year for Rutgers, was redshirted the next year and then two for Bryant so he can get his Covid year back. He will be 25 next season. Wright State up 12 at the under eight minute time out. Kiss has 18, Holden for Wright State has 28 and 9.
 
Rutgers ND not bad way to kill a Wednesday night for a play in hand right now

Geo Baker creating and making some big shots to force OT, although he missed a chance to win it. Tough kid.
 
Rooting against both teams so double ot works. God please let me never have to hear Avery Johnson in the booth again 
 
I don't think he was trying to foul. Ref assumed he was trying to foul there. Anyway,  great game.

They need to combine Avery Johnson and Bill Walton as an announcing team. Talk about unlistenable!

At least with Walton I can tolerate his voice and put up with the other stuff if it is a good game, but Johnson's voice is like nails on a chalk board to me and to add he is horrible at it, so usually I'm out.

I disagree.  I think he has a very low-key manner imparting a lot of sound analysis with some humor.  Much better than Raff now, whom I used to love, IMHO.  And I can't stand Bilas.

I said the same thing. Every mistake like that, missed layup, ill-advised 3, would have been vilified on this board.

that freshman on ND, Wesley, is a real good player.
