Villanova 1 1 1
Creighton 10 10 6

Butler 18 18 8
Seton Hall rec' votes rec' votes 25
Providence n/a n/a 46
Although Dayton possesses an RPI of 44, VCU a 28 and RI a 33 and VCU is the only A10 program receiving votes in the AP is it a fact that those BE teams have a change to play up their ranking during the Conference while the A10 is forced to fight each other for what? Maybe a 2 bid conference but that's it.

You can't really draw that conclusion yet concerning the A10 potential ncaa bids. If 3 or 4 teams totally separate from the pack, then the A10 still has a legitimate shot at three or four bids. Plus, there is no way of factoring the exact impact of conference tournament until you see the final regular season standings k, and the A10 Tournament play itself out.
A whole bunch can happen between now and selection Sunday. Go Flyers, Go A10!
