Big East hurting

The Big East is one of, if not the best conference in the country, and yet three of the four teams who played yesterday lost. And the one to win, Villanova, was pushed as far as it could be pushed.

It made me think that, although facing tough competition throughout the season prepares you for the tournament, it might actually wear you down. There are no easy nights in the NCAAs, and even the teams that didn't make the NCAAs (Seton Hall, South Florida) are no pushovers.

I think by the time March rolls around, these teams were a bit exhausted. And that's why they'll be watching the rest from the same place I will: the couch.
