Even though I'm not a Duke fan, they are in a very difficult bracket in my opinion.


6 UCLA - 11 VCU
3 Villanova - 14 American
7 Texas - 10 Minnesota
2 Duke - 15 Binghamton

Please...let's hear it how LSU did not get screwed. I guess you had em at a 10?

LSU was a a 9 seed in 1988 with an 18-13 record if that shows you how badly we were screwed.

Dont lose 3 of the last 4 to unranked teams right before selection sunday. Also the SEC is horribly down this year.

Shitting the bed down the stretch didn't seem to hurt OU that much. Didn't win their conference, didn't win their conference tournament, still the highest seeded Big12 team.

I don't think the SEC is a top 6 conference this year. If so, they are 6th.

that sucks, but some 8-seed had to do it.

If they got fricked, they did it to themselves by phoning in the last 2 weeks of the season. Guess what? Those 2 weeks counted. A lot.

Washington gets a home pod as a top 4 seed. Makes perfect sense. If anything Washington got screwed by having to play a BCS conference team as a 4 seed
