If KU plays this well through Selection Sunday, then UT could possibly either get passed up as a #1 seed or end up being the #1 in the West. Looks like we might need to pull for Duke to come on strong and beat UNC twice in the next two weeks, securing us a venue in Raleigh...

As much as it pains me to say it, Duke beating UNC now that Duke has taken those pitiful losses will only serve to help us overall, so I hope they do.

If Tennessee wins out, they won't be the No. 1 seed in the West. Our resume is second to none right now.

I could not agree more. However, with the Texas loss and KU's play the two weeks prior to the K-State game, we at least had a cushion.

I think if TN beats FL and UCSe they will be a 1 seed, probably in Detroit. Memphis, UT, UCLA and UNC/Duke/KU...

If Duke beats UNC on Saturday and wins the ACC tourny they will be the 1 seed....UM, UCLA, Duke, UT/KU

If Duke and UT both win out UT will still get a #1 seed over Duke. There is no doubt about it. That is also a pretty big IF for Duke.

Whoever wins out of UNC/Duke and the ACC champ. is going to be a #1 seed, and that's because it is the name. I think UT will also be up there if they win out, along with Memphis and Kansas/UCLA.

But yes, lets still cheer for Duke too. :birgits_giggle:

Why not cheer for Duke anyways? I have yet to figure out UT's problem with Duke...I dont even remember the last time the 2 teams faced off in mens bball. I can understand why Kentucky hates them...but UT...jealousy maybe?

Because it's Duke. I don't like watching squirmmy white guys running around the court like little rats. Basically I think I never liked Redick and I can't stand the smirk on Paulus' face. This team has always seemed too cocky IMO.

Under any circumstance that could ever be devised in our human condition, Duke can always :biteme:..
