Early word from the CBS guys are that there are a lot of surprises. I'm wondering how the Villanova/Ray injury will play out? If it will keep them from a #1?

I hope not, as my grandfather is a big Villanova fan. Looking forward to watching this selection show. |

Sigh...
Another year that I have no reason to watch the selection show. I can't wait til Gary gets guys who aren't McDonald's All-Americans and the like. His coaching style is infinitely better for kids with potential and talent who weren't superstars in high school... /tk

Guess not, as they are #1 in the Minneapolis bracket (hate that naming scheme - I like the directional/geographic names better).

Duke may be the overall #1, but there's no way they'll win the whole thing.

geez, i may be a duke homer, but i think they have the bracket of death in this tourney. i love jj, but there's no way this duke team makes it into the final 4. maybe elite 8, but not further. jj doesn't have enough around him to do anything.

No, the play-in teams get a Friday game. So Duke can't get them and play on Thursday. And it looks like the Greensboro games are Thursday/Saturday ...

no, for some reason that ends up going to a certain region no matter what (determined long before), and duke was scheduled closest to home, which wasn't the same bracket. makes little sense, but this is the ncaa. |

So. Illinois is an 11 seed, that might not be a good sign for the MVC.

Ouch, I know Gonzaga didn't play their best at the end of the season, but a 3 seed seems harsh. I really thought they had a shot at a 1, and they don't even get a 2. Wow.

Seth says Gonzaga closer to #1 than a #3 - wonder how he'll feel about that if they don't advance to the Sweet 16 to lose to UCLA? Seriously, their recent NCAA performance has not shown them playing to their seed. Closer to #1? As if I needed further proof that Seth Davis sucks ...

The Gonzaga I saw at the end of the season definitely was a 3. Especially when placed in the same region with UCLA.

I don't follow the Pac-10 at all. Is UCLA really that good? I didn't hear a damned thing about them all season, and now in the past week, they're suddenly gods. I acknowledge that I missed something, but what did I miss?

BTW, what is the most people that have been in a thread at the same time? Have to believe that the NFL ones probably drew a big crowd, but 18 (17 members, 1 guest) in this one seems like a lot to me.

Air Force?!
I knew the Mountain West would get more than one team. But that makes me even sadder that Wyoming didn't win last night. Because we beat Air Force twice and almost 3 teams on a fluke shot. Grr...at least I go to a school that plays D1 at all now. lol. Wow..Seton Hall.

And anybody who thinks that Memphis' bracket is weak needs to take a closer look at UConn's. Below the top 5 teams, it's pretty cruddy.

Wow, Illinois not getting any favors here. Tough bracket, dropped to a #4 seed, having to play teams with (relative) home court in Air Force and Washington. I don't like it one bit.
And Conn in the Sweet 16 if they get there. This bracket is just horrid for my school. |

There's no way in hell Utah State, George Mason and Air Force are better than Michigan or Florida State. Missouri State should be in ahead of Utah State and Air Force.

UCLA is playing as well as anyone in the country. They could easily make it to the Final Four.

So can we all agree that duke got fucked in the ass for their bracket? you may hate them, but you have to agree that got an insane bracket, especially compared to the other top seeds.
