How is this possible?

Just to review:

This season the Hoyas beat American (a 14 seed), Maryland (a 10 seed), Syracuse (a 3 seed), Villanova (a 3 seed), Memphis (a 2 seed), and UConn (a 1 seed).

On Wednesday night, Georgetown will be a 6 seed in the NIT playing at freakin' Baylor.

Casually.

Seton Hall – no post season tourney
St. John’s twice – CBIT

Good talk.

Casually.

I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.

I would say that bc all the big wins (aside from Villanova) were early on, the committee looked at the last month and took a pass….BUT we’ve been inundated with talk from the Committee Char and others since Selection Sunday about the “total body of work.”

If MD deserved it (early wins over Mich State & Michigan, later wins over UNC & Wake; losses to Morgan State (!), Miami, UVA (!)), then so did we….
