I was going to comment on why slightly worse than expected but it's quite obvious.

Seton Hall - as expected

The thing is we all have different expectations. That's why I would be curious for our readers to post their own views on all 11 teams as opposed to commentating on just mine.

DePaul has to be worse than expected. Who thought they would be 1-6 with losses to Purdue Fort Wayne, Long Beach State and Northern Illinois all at home?

When the highlights of your season are a win over South Dakota and a five-point loss to South Carolina on a neutral floor, it's not going well.

Beyond that, I think my views are similar to yours.
