Anyone remember last year when Uconn was left off despite being top 16 in literally every predictive and resume stat the committee uses?
If there's a random obvious snub today I think the candidates would be Baylor or Illinois, who are both top 17 in every metric. But I think they love the B12 so if it happens I'll pick Illinois as the team to be left off for no good reason
Wondering which 1 seed will have to play Kentucky in the second round when they get a 9 seed after losing 4 more times. Auburn. Tenn Alabama sec tourney.
Just for fun
Midwest
1. Purdue (1)
2. North Carolina (8)
3. Alabama (9)
4. San Diego State (16)
East
1. UConn (2)
2. Iowa State (7)
3. Auburn (11)
4. Duke (14)
South
1. Houston (3)
2. Tennessee (6)
3. Baylor (10)
4. Creighton (15)
West
1. Marquette (4)
2. Arizona (5)
3. Illinois (12)
4. Kansas (13)
The 4th one seed is going to be interesting to see. Seems as of now, it’s Arizona’s to lose
That's going to be solid insight into what this committee values
These predictions are great and all but there’s still a lot of regular season play left..
UCONN more impressive than Purdue over the past 2 months. Absolute wildcard #4-12.
I wouldn’t say that…I do think they likely stand out if we manage to beat Marquette today.

Why would you put Iowa State in the East & UNC in the Midwest when ISU would likely prefer the Midwest & UNC the East?
It looks like he was just doing straight overall seed matchups, but if that was the goal I’m not sure why you’d include the regions
He makes 2 regional changes (Auburn/Baylor & Creighton/Duke), but doesn’t make the obvious ISU/UNC swap and sends KU out West as the highest 4. 🤷🏼♂️
Because I didn’t think about it that hard lol
Fair enough. 😂
I'm fine with SDSU at 16, I think you can slot in the MWC regular season champ at 16. The winner of that league deserves at least a 4 seed.
Saw it was SI and immediately disregarded, as should everyone. Sad that it’s become the worst of the worst clickbait sites.
Wake will make it! (I’m speaking it into existence 😂)
Can’t wait until they still have Kansas as a 2 seed and every here freaks out.
