Out of Wichita, though, sent to Boise in a pod with Wichita State as the 4. I like our chances of getting to the second weekend a lot better as a 5. Vermont is our projected opponent as a 12.
If I could put us into the bracket myself, I’d want us to be a 5 in Wichita. Or Dallas, but Texas schools are likely to be sent there.
Auburn is still a 3 in spite of their late slide. Jerry has 8 SEC teams, with Bama as an 11.
At this point, I’ll be surprised if Auburn is a 3. Not necessarily because of today, but their last 2 weeks have been pretty average, and the committee usually accounts for a team weakened by injury, which they are.
I actually would love to see those teams in the Midwest bracket.
Looking at that bracket, I think it would work out for us very well. I think we can beat Wich St. and Xavier, but I think TT can beat FL and Purdue. I like our chances against TT. Yes, I’m saying if that was the actual teams in our bracket, I’d like our chances of making the FF.
Lunardi has us as a 6th seed. We get the winner of ASU/TX. I really don’t like either matchup. Then if we win we get 3 seed Mich St (ummmm…a 3 seed). If we beat them we’d get Duke. And if we get by Duke, we get KS.
That’s to make it to the FF. That’s a murderers row. If somehow we beat KS and make the FF, the game would be Nova/UNC bracket. That’s just brutal. I really hope Lunardi is WRONG.
Fusion said we are 5 Seed. What you have here sound no good. Lunardi stuff is a pie in the sky. Let’s wait till Sunday. I am more worried about this Tourny right now. I sure like to win it for all of us.
