The Madness Before March: St.John's

St.John's Red Storm 17-9
With three wins over top 10 opponents you have to figure that the Red Storm are pretty much a lock? Nope. St.John's has lost to a plain bad St.Bonaventure and Fordham which makes them the most complicated bubble team in the Big East. Playing in the Big East means lots of losses but the Red Storm still have a decent mark (17-9) overall and in conference(9-5). Downing Pittsburgh, Syracuse and UConn will help build up their resume but they can't continue losing to teams in the bottom of their respective conferences. Obviously a strong performance in the Big East tournament would help but doubt it with other teams clouding the top (only UConn, Pittsburgh, Syracuse, Villanova, Georgetown, Louisville and Cincinnati) they have to finish of the regular season first.
