Ranking Sweet 16's to Win It All

Not that it matters but ESPN had similar thoughts
Yahoo had us at 8 in their rankings.

At the end of the day, unless the other games in your region fall favorably, you are going to play a good team in the S16. I’m back and forth on Purdue’s ranking as a 3 seed from second to fourth. Probably second, although I am glad we don’t have to play LSU again.

I mean it's hard to disagree.

But it means absolutely nothing in the grand scheme of things. We can beat Purdue, which is all that matters right now.

I would also prefer to play Purdue over Florida State in the hypothetical world where we earned the 1 seed in the West.

Would you rather have the Vols or 'the rest of the field"?


I am putting down $25k on the Vols.

See I would LOVE a rematch against them. I think they’d be a better match up then Purdue truthfully. And we barely lost to them at their place

I think that's about right. Nothing I have seen Friday or Sunday makes me believe we can play a solid 40 minutes at the level we need to win a NC. IMHO, Gonzaga v Dook will be the NC game, with the winner disposing of whomever emerges from the other game.

I can see that, but they’d have Waters back and Reid possibly wouldn’t be in early foul trouble.

I hope our players see these predictions. They play a lot better with a chip on their shoulders.

Oregon above us lol

Don’t see anyone dropping Duke to 14/15 after they escaped by the roll of a ball yesterday. The double standard is ridiculous.

They don't even try to hide their bias any more and it's sad. Duke remaining #1 is so comical. The Zags and UNC and probably even a couple of other teams should have been ahead of them. I bet if Duke would have been upset they'd still have them ahead of us lol.

i dont care what any of them think. they are big corporations trying to make marketing bucks. I trust our players and coach to make it past Purdue. Total disrespect.
