I think I want a seeding that gets the coogs away from an early round match up with a much better than they will be seeded bubble team like Arky
Even if you beat them you are gonna be worn out in the effort
The other probably underseeded but really dangerous team will be Mizzou

I look at the comments and donât confuse rankings with seedings. Rankings are week to week and a loss can drop you a number of spots. I would expect, that even after Alabama losing last night to Missouri, theyâll still be a number one seed in most brackets, Now if they lose again this coming weekend to Kentucky, then I can see them falling off the 1 line. At this point of the season, I think it takes multiple losses to fall off the 1-line. In most projections, it took ISU 3 losses before they fell off the 1-line.
As for where weâll play our sub-regional, itâs going to be Wichita. Thatâs the closest site and region doesnât matter. Unless there are two schools seeded higher than us and Wichita is the closest site for them, weâre going there. If you look at the brackets, theyâve had Auburn and Alabama in the same sub-regional despite the fact theyâre in different regions.
For us to rise to a #1 seed, the SEC teams are going to need to beat themselves up. I see no way that Auburn is going to lose enough games to fall off the 1 line (it would be three losses in a row.) The ACC is soft and I donât see Duke losing before the ACC tournament (unless itâs a revenge game against UNC) and itâs going to take more than 1-loss for them to fall off the 1-line. We were seeded #8 overall. I expect we have moved up to #7 with Purdue losses. Maybe #6 with A$M losing.
You want to be a #1 seed? Root for Auburn in all games. Root for SEC teams seeded above us to beat one another up, no road wins. Anyone playing Duke. More Purdue losses wouldnât hurt either. And of course, UH going undefeated for the rest of the conference schedule and tournament.
The correct answer is you âJimmy the lockâ on a side or back windowâŠ.very quietly.

Something to consider with the 1 seed stuff, thereâs never been a 1 seed that had 8+ losses before the NCAAT. Bama just hit five losses yesterday and still has to play Auburn, Florida, Tennessee, Miss St, Kentucky, and their conference tourney. If they can get through all of that with only 2 losses then theyâve earned it imo, but my moneys on them hitting 8 losses and that historical cutoff point holding up.
Must be my spring break moved upâŠ.dangâŠ.now Iâm gonna have to use some days off.

Thereâs a reason why so many BYU students become pest control salesmen in Texas. We are good at getting doors slammed in our face, but finding the one that doesnât. Thatâs how we got in the big 12 
we wore them down.

Why wouldnât Florida be the top over all one seed if they recently beat Auburn at Auburn ?
Auburn has a vastly superior resume. Arguably the best weâve seen since the adoption of the NET and the implementation of the quad system. Thereâs a pretty big gap between them and everyone else from a resume standpoint.

If weâre national championship quality, seeding doesnât really matter since weâll have to beat everybody we play regardless of who or where. Like Coach said, health is more important than seeding.
I canât imagine what Iâll be thinking or how Iâll be feeling if I see Sampson on the ladder on April 7, especially if Iâm in San Antonio.
Roberts, Francis are greatly improved.
Uzan is finding his groove.
Wilson is becoming Mr. Dependable.
Arceneaux and Tugler could be great competitors when theyâre under control.
The xfactors are Sharp and Cryer as in one or both need to be on. If both are off, no bueno. We canât have a 2-22 3pt shooting ala Villanova in 22 Elite 8 from them or it will be tough.
Bottom line is to stay out of early foul trouble, continue the already excellent ball security and stay away from long scoring droughts. Good defense is a given and Iâm not even worried about free throws anymore.
Do all that and 2025 will be the start of a new era on Cullen Boulevard as NATIONAL CHAMPIONS.

BYU beat Kansas by 34 and dropped a spot in Lunardiâs projection. Nice

Yeah that was super confusing since BYU has been on a nice streak. I would also like to hear more about the possibility of Houston taking a 1 seed⊠Alabama is really vunerable in my opinion.

Lunardi the Lunatic has been working on brackets for a long time but he makes some idiotic mistakes sometimes.

Maybe itâs been discussed but someone tell me how Lunardi has NC as a âfirst 4 outâ with a 1-10 Quad 1 record!? GTFOH
