    Re: Duke does not deserve a #1 seed

    a bunch of these seeds baffle me this year. However, with the parity that we are seeing this year, you can make a case either way. I would have to think that the committee had a tough time seeding this field.

      I'm not biased or anything, but I think one of the best 1st round games is the Louisville-Xavier matchup.

            all of the C-USA teams got shafted on their seeds except for Cincy, but that is the way it goes and it won't change. We all just have to go play the games!! I think all of the C-USA matchups will be great games. ETSU will give Cincy a run for their money too. Hopefully, their radio announcer won't get booted this season!

                  Cincy always seems to underachieve.

                        I can only speak for myself, but my dislike for Duke has more to do with ESPN's ACC propoganda. Can Mike Patrick and Dukie V just call a game without campaigning to be put on ESPN Classic? If it turns out to be a great game, then so be it, but you don't have to hype it up every 5 seconds during the game when people are already watching. They also treated the Duke-UNC game like a national holiday despite UNC's mediocrity this year. Normally I would laugh this off, but when you see a joke like Maryland getting a #4 seed, you have to wonder if it really influences some people consciously or not.
                        And by the way, Duke has the same # of national titles as about 8 other teams in the last 10 years; so their recent run, while impressive, isn't exactly Wooden-esque.
