A shame there will not be any makeup games. Difficult to expect the Huskies or StJ to win in Finneran. Difficult to see Cr8n winning there too, but
they could pull it off after Nova's upset at Hinkle 3 days earlier.

Nova must L 2 of their last 5 in order for Jays to repeat. That's a tall order. C'mon Butler and Prov. ;)


Not sure what you're looking at git --

Nova is sitting at 9-2 right now and has four games left on the schedule (1 vs. CU).
CU is sitting at 12-4 right now and has four games left on the schedule (1 vs. Nova).

If CU wins out and Nova wins out except for losing again to CU, then Nova ends at 12-3 and CU ends at 16-4 --- that's .800 for both teams, tied at the top of the standings, and CU winning the #1 seed by way of the tiebreaker again.

(That depends on CU actually winning the other three games, of course, which isn't a given, either -- but that's the possibility).


So if all that plays out what’s the chance of PC opting out of their last game with Nova so Cooley can get his ol Buddy ol pal Mac the outright championship?

It does seem like the Big East has been slow to re-schedule games. The only fast pace was games scheduled on FOX, compared to FS1.

Hypothetical: CU loses to Nova and wins other 3. 15-5. .750. Nova beats the Jays but drops 2 others. 11-4. .733. Seems logical that CU wins the league b/c of winning %. HOWEVER... in common opponents the Jays are 11-5 and Nova is 11-4.
Should Nova be punished b/c Covid prevented us from playing the worst team in the league even a single time, let alone twice? Could you Jays fans really want to see a banner hung as a result?
