The win they needed

HUGE win by the Panthers over the Hall. A loss would of been a BIG setback and a possible bubble team come time picking teams for the tourney. The win puts the Panthers in good position and a solid spot in the Top 25. A loss would of put a big blemish on their resume. They should be able to get in the tourney now. The question is what their seeding will be. So it all comes down to the games left and how far they advance in the Big East Tourney.

With a couple of ounces of home team hope, I am predicting 12-6 / 24-7 for the Panthers this year.  That's exactly what I predicted on the poll for the Regular Season Record.  I think it's very achievable and that should put them solidly in the tournament.

The results will be the same for any tournament hopeful team.  Get a bunch of wins for the rest of the season and in your conference tournament and you'll get a better seed and maybe better chances to advance.  I would love it if the Panthers current winning ways continue.  It might be a long shot, but I would absolutely go nuts if they won out. 

I ask you: Could 14-4 / 26-5 really be possible?  I don't think it's impossible when I look at the remaining schedule.
