I was critical of them too. Former UCLA player Elina Aarnisalo has been playing great for North Carolina since replacing the injury Reyna Kelly.

They beat Vanderbilt and lost to Duke last season.

I already know that the committee announced the final 16 in alphabetical order. Thanks

I guess what threw me off about the list is that one what I posted is the one that the official NCAA website still has up as the final committee ranking. Also it is Michigan St. not Michigan who got knocked out of the final 16.

That list that was announced last Saturday was just an alphabetical order list of the Top 16.

Are you talking about the final committee rankings?

Their non conference record was still horrible though. We will see what they will do in this upcoming tournament. The league has sent at least one team to the Elite Eight in each of the past 23 NCAA Tournaments, the longest active streak among all conferences.

UCLA and Minnesota finished the top 4 in the same conference and they are in the same bracket. They will meet in the S16 if the chalk holds up.

In an event that there's a 3 way tie or more, the best record amongst the tied teams are used. Tennessee had the best record going 2-1 against Georgia, Kentucky and Ole Miss.

Carolina was predicted to finish 3rd and they did. They could've finished 2nd outright had they closed out Louisville and Stanford in the final minute of those games. Their clutch 3pt and FT shooting improved over the course of the season.

UNC at Virginia tonight. UNC locks up a double bye with a win. A Virginia win leaves that last bye open (I'm assuming State is going to get their double bye with wins over Wake and Pitt).

Why was the loss so puzzling? Kansas has the better overall record and had already beaten Kansas St. by 22 points last month.

The consequence of the PAC 12 implosion. The bids they used to get are spread out amongst the conferences.
