*Play-in games Wednesday, May 11
The field is set!
Maryland finds themselves as the #1 overall seed (incidentally, the Maryland wlax team are also the #1 seed in the women's tournament-an absolute favorite to repeat as champs for their 12th title since 1992).
Defending champs Denver find themselves coming off of a supreme upset at the hands of 4 year NCAA program Marquette (they were a long time MCLA program prior to joining the NCAA). Duke will have to get by the Pios in order to find themselves back in the Final 4.
Notre Dame is likely to plow through their corner of the bracket to get to Philly after what could be a decent tussle with UNC in the 2nd round.
Brown out of the Ivy League has a great opportunity to win the 1st round & host the 2nd round. But they have to get by ESPN love-child Hopkins. Also, Yale is having a tremendous season by program standards but have to deal with at-large Navy & their punishing defense.
A huge chance to see some new faces in the Final Four on Memorial Day weekend in Philly. The game is growing & teams are becoming more competitive, taking down traditional powerhouses.

Rutgers got screwed. Shouldve got in over hopkins.

Very interesting story line there. Would like to see some direct quotes from the committee.

Wait, no Denver?
Posted on 5/10/16 at 12:31 am to RedPop4
Denver landed the #2 seed even after being upset by Marquette.

I thought they both deserved it over Navy.

I spent the entire reveal show repeating one thing, "No Syracuse at #8." So of course... Syracuse as the 8-seed. Terps are screwed.

Very tough draw

Actually, the Terps MO is to make the Final Four and then lose. I'd hate for them to break tradition.

Excuse me, we make it to the championship and lose, not the Final Four.

18 of the last 40 Final Fours. No titles. (Won in 1975).
That's just spectacular consistency.

Really intrigued by Brown's percentage...
and you Maryland guys can at least take solace in the fact that your wlax team is a 40% rating to win it all one again & likely have the Tewaaraton all sewn up.

I'm interested to see if Brown or Yale can make a run. Could expedite changes in Charlottesville.

Nah, Hopkins had a tougher schedule.
Posted on 5/10/16 at 3:21 pm to Crowknowsbest
an Ivy run that is NOT Princeton for a title would be an very interesting shift.
But I just can't count the Blue Devils out. Danowski is a mad genius during the tourney.

If Myles Jones and Deemer
Class are "on" they'll be difficult to stop.
