Ten Big East teams have RPI Index scores of 40 or better, and Marquette is at 62. Should the NCAA let them send ten teams to the Big Dance? Or eleven, if Marquette beats one more higher ranked team?...
...11 is indeed possible. With the remaining schedule that Marquette has left, their only chance at this point to beat another rated team will be when they play UConn & G'town. If they can beat either of those teams and win most of their others, I would think they would be a lock for the tourney....
Marquette leads Georgetown 35-31 at halftime. The Washington Post's braketologist already had them as an eleventh seed going into this game. A win today and no upsets
