3/8 BACATOLOGY: NCAA TOURNAMENT ANALYSIS

Gimme a 7-10 against Clemson, Missouri, or (less good) Oklahoma.

I’m the same way. I rather play the 7-10 game than 8-9. All of the above are very beatable.
Colorado top seed from PAC12? Wow! How far down seeding wise fall USC and Oregon and guessing UCLA still makes it.
 
Utah State knocking off Colorado State just made my job harder. The Rams don't have a strong profile but no slip ups though. Boise profile got a boost because they swept Utah St.
 
Bill Walton with another classic call in an an exciting USC furious comeback that fell short vs Colorado.These teams can hit the 3...sigh
 
BAC- I agree with most of your projections on tournament teams except Memphis being out. If they beat Houston today are they in?

I wouldn't be surprised that Maryland and Rutgers switch seeding positions based on the Friday performance.

Really not impressed with any of the big east teams. Georgetown has a chance to be a bid stealer though.
 
Georgetown dominating Creighton in the first half. Creighton looks terrible.

Its weird but AAC could get Cincy as the AQ and Houston at large. Yet their #1 seeded team, would not make it. Very strange year.

Way off on Memphis - they deserve to be in. They could beat all of the last four in.
 
San Diego State tops Utah State in the Mountain West final. Aggies will sweat it out as last 2 in last team 2 out tomorrow with Colorado State..how do you even begin to seperate them

What seed does Georgetown get?
 
I dont know..how do you even seed them. I am thinking no better than 11, they could be a 12 or 13...their NET is at 76 coming and that will shoot up but they only are 13-12

Man if a Big East champ - even with the league not what it was - is a 12 or 13... I just add it as evidence to "weirdest year(s) ever".
 
looks like Houston will survive and will meet Cincy in the finals tomorrow where all the bubbles will be Houston fans

Memphis is finished, just do not have the resume

14 seed but they were 4-12 in the SEC. Georgetown went 7-9, much better. I see a 12 seed.
 
Georgetown wins and officialy becomes the first bid stealer...still two more out there....Colorado State say goodbye, we will revisit you after a full scrub tomorrow morning

Georgia Tech going to beat FSU for the ACC title. I think this is going to move Ga Tech ahead of RU on the seed list. Going to be close between last 9 and first 10..wow
