Hope we are not in Duke’s bracket Don’t like that matchup.

We don't get a #1 seed and it's likely where we will be
At least KY will have to get through Houston and/or Florida

I have no problems with 2 in the East. The last 1 is either us or Florida and whoever doesn’t get it is gonna benefit from a regional advantage.

Not like there is much distance between Duke, Florida, and Tennessee.

This. The only way we avoid Duke is if we get the #1 seed in the Midwest or West.

We will end up in Duke's bracket based on today's top 16. Still a lot basketball to be played so it can change in a moment. Seriously do not want to go out to the West Coast. Would rather stay close to home. Let the season play out. Who knows what the Committee will actually do come final selection. Always a guessing game.

It comes down really to would you rather play them or Houston?
I'd have to think about that probably. First reaction is I'd rather play Houston but I like our mathups to get to the final 4 better I think in current projection

 

[esarmstrong]

We play aTm this week and that game could determine whether we move up or down from here.

Only reason folks don’t want any Duke is fearing officiating bias IMO.

 

[NATHAN05]

Crazy how many SEC teams are in the mix......it just means more I guess

Flagg will be Edey 2.0 if we play them because if we stop him we most likely win.
Go watch that NC State game and you'll see they had one guy that was stopping Flagg and the refs got him out.
Have to make the win margin too big to rig.
Need to be on our A game shooting

Shouldn’t we be in Indy? Closer than Newark. They’d have us in Atlanta but I know the 1 overall seed can’t have the number 1 2 seed.

Or they just have more. 16 teams in the league now.

The first four teams from a conference have to be placed in separate regions. Alabama is in the Midwest already. We’re currently the 4th SEC team and the East is the only region that’s left.

If we want the Midwest we have to pass both Bama and Florida in the overall rank to be given preference.

And Lunardi currently has 14 in the tournament - incredible

That’s pretty stupid in this case we are better off dropping behind TAMU so we can get Atlanta. 1/2 doesn’t happen until the E8 anyway.

I don't think we are ever better off dropping behind someone late into the season. The players don't care where/who they play

It’s been a rule since the selection committee was formed decades ago. Please find something else to complain about.

I’ll complain about what I please. Please find someone else’s complaints to complain about.

Committee didn’t envision 5 of the top 6 seeds being from the same conference.

Someone who knows the rules wouldn’t complain, that’s all I’m saying.

There are a lot of bad rules that plenty disagree with and complain about. This is a logic fail.

There is little difference in the 5 overall seed vs the 6.
