Need Wisconsin to lose here. Arizona should in no way receive a 1 seed over Duke, but Wisconsin has a semblance of a case.

They will not pass Duke fe the other #1. Though they should....
Plus. Zona won their conference tourney... And should be a #1 over Duke...
BUT in this situation the committee has a mandatory obligation from the networks to leave Duke as A #1 seed. Its all about ratings and what the NCAA wants....

Not Duke... I don't care about all those #'s...
BUT they will ALWAYS get the benefit of the doubt cause they are FRICKING Duke........ The Duke bias is pathetic when it comes to the NCAA and the networks....

You're a lost cause .

If they Wisconsin wins, it should be them, Nova, Zona, and UK, right?

IMO yes.... Or UVA in instead of maybe Zona.. But not Duke . They didn't even win their conference.
Posted on 3/15/15 at 1:33 pm to Sevendust912
According to the numbers I posted, it should be Duke #2, Wisconsin #3, Nova #4, Virginia #5, and Arizona a distant #6.
Posted on 3/15/15 at 1:40 pm to Sellecks Moustache
Maybe so, but IMO there is something to be said for winning your conference and your conference tourney. Duke did neither.
Posted on 3/15/15 at 1:43 pm to Sevendust912
That doesn't matter much when you beat 16% of the RPI top 25 on the road.
Posted on 3/15/15 at 2:12 pm to Sellecks Moustache
I watched Zona play all weekend, they would hammer Duke!! Zona is the 2nd best team in the country imo, would love to see them get a shot at UK
Posted on 3/15/15 at 2:14 pm to HarrisLetsRide
Oh, the team that lost to UNLV, ASU, and Oregon State. I'm sure they would hammer Duke.

Like I have said to you before... #'s are NOT all that matter here... Its tradition and geography and the NCAA... The only reason that Duke gets a #1 seed over a big ten regular season and big ten tourney champ Wisky is tradition and network ratings....
Posted on 3/15/15 at 2:19 pm to Sellecks Moustache
The way Zona is playing now? Absolutely!! Didn't dook get blown out at home by Miami and get whooped by NCst? Also barely escaped a couple of powerhouses in VT and FSU. See, we can all play your little game too....you been a Duke fan since when? 92 or 93?
Posted on 3/15/15 at 2:45 pm to HarrisLetsRide
Game's on, really hoping it turns out better than a few weeks ago in Madison
Posted on 3/15/15 at 2:55 pm to HarrisLetsRide
Yes, the way Arizona is playing against standouts like UCLA, Cal, Colorado, Oregon State, USC. Oh, I forgot Utah and Oregon, the only two other teams from their conference that will make the tournament. Let's just forget about the fact that Duke is 12-1 in it;s current configuration.

I love the Big 10 tournament. When it ends, it's usually selection time.
Posted on 3/15/15 at 2:57 pm to Sellecks Moustache
Tied at 13-13 with 1100 left, big time 3 for MSU.
Posted on 3/15/15 at 3:06 pm to SpartyGator
MSU shooting 62% and still trailing
