publicity and moneyas someone who is totally out the hoop loop 'til tourney time, can someone please to explain what this seeding is in aid of?
thanks, i'll hang up and listen
A crapton will change over the next 5 weeks. So many games left to playLaying out the seeds early is dumb. The fun of the selection show was the surprises. Not a fan of this idea.
They did a great job laying out why some teams have to go out west and why others get to stay local. It was very informative.Laying out the seeds early is dumb. The fun of the selection show was the surprises. Not a fan of this idea.
I assume Florida got to be South because of their Awesome Index rating?They did a great job laying out why some teams have to go out west and why others get to stay local. It was very informative.
Yep.A crapton will change over the next 5 weeks. So many games left to play
Yes I think their rating was somewhere between 4-8I assume Florida got to be South because of their Awesome Index rating?
Not sure that there are generally all that many surprises within the top 16 teams.Laying out the seeds early is dumb. The fun of the selection show was the surprises. Not a fan of this idea.
Butler just got knocked out by Providence.Ramblin Wreck said:A crapton will change over the next 5 weeks. So many games left to play
I was surprised they released the ranking today rather than tomorrow after most of the weekend's game were done. I guess they wanted announcers talking about them during every game today.Butler just got knocked out by Providence.
Probably, but they have a lot of games coming up that will swing them one way or the other.I just don't see North Carolina as a 2 seed and #5 overall .....
.....right now. Am I the only one that thinks they are too high? They are definitely getting the benefit of the doubt and history is being factored in too much.
Hopefully it keeps them around where they are right now. I'll look like a genius when I pick them to lose in the 2nd or 3rd round. ?Probably, but they have a lot of games coming up that will swing them one way or the other.
They have so many flaws I think even their x factor won't be enough to carry them past decent opposition on their A game.Hopefully it keeps them around where they are right now. I'll look like a genius when I pick them to lose in the 2nd or 3rd round. ?
They're size can be hard to overcome and create some mismatches however. I guess it all depends on the bracket they are in.
Theo Pinson has missed several games but they are much better when he plays.Hopefully it keeps them around where they are right now. I'll look like a genius when I pick them to lose in the 2nd or 3rd round. ?

Big Ten completely shut out of the top 4 seeds, probably deservedly so, but it would make for an interesting bracket where Wisconsin or Purdue is a 5 seed.Ditkaless Wonders said:#7 in the A.P. poll and #5 in the Coaches poll, but not in the Committee's top 16.
No power-conference team wants to face either UW or Purdue as an underseeded 5 in the second round (they wouldn't want to face them at anytime, but my point holds). But, there's gonna be a log-jam for seeds and I could see a 7 or a 10 making a deep run.Big Ten completely shut out of the top 4 seeds, probably deservedly so, but it would make for an interesting bracket where Wisconsin or Purdue is a 5 seed.
