The regular season champion was already determined, as Syracuse will get the top seed, despite their loss to Louisville. But the order directly below Syracuse had to be settled today with a big game. Villanova could have locked up the second seed, but a loss to West Virginia made the 2-4 order quite different. The three top threats to Syracuse in the Big East tournament 2010 are Villanova, West Virginia and Pittsburgh. But the Wildcats are starting to fade, and now they have gone down to fourth in the standings. After Pittsburgh beat Rutgers, the surging Panthers got the second seed in a tiebreaker with West Virginia and Villanova. But the Mountaineers are now seeded third thanks to beating the Wildcats.
The Big East tournament 2010 is the most anticipated event of championship week. Once the Big East tournament 2010 concludes, the top NCAA seeds and the bubble line will be drastically altered. This year, there aren't
so many teams assured of an NCAA bid yet, but they can finish off a tournament resume. For others already in, they can drastically improve their seeding, or make their NCAA road tougher. After today's games, the Big East tournament 2010 bracket is now all but formed, setting things up for another big show.
No matter what, these top four teams were assured of 'double byes' in the Big East tournament 2010. The fifth-eighth teams will get single byes from Tuesday's opening round, and those teams are Marquette, Louisville, Notre Dame and Georgetown. Despite winning over Syracuse, Louisville is only the sixth seed, after losing earlier in the week to fifth seed Marquette.
Notre Dame got seventh place in a tiebreaker with Georgetown, even though the Hoyas are an NCAA team and the Irish are still on the bubble. Their opening matchups will be determined after the first Big East tournament 2010 games on Tuesday.
