SJU will give us fits with their style of play

You are giving ONE example and NOWHERE can you point to anything or anyone that said the seeding was based on the ranking. It’s a relationship that just doesn’t exist but you are somehow trying to force it. You wouldn’t find one expert or committee member or frankly, anyone that knows...

Nice attempt at dodging…..except it didn’t work

It’s all up to the sportswriters. They know best.

First off, it doesn't "impact" seeding...I believe I proved my point and Secondly, your exact quote was "probably because this stuff DETERMINES seeding". I think that's a little different than "impact" So why don't you just admit you have no clue what you are talking about, AND you are...

This.....the relationship is purely coincidental. Polls are not used as an input to determine seeding. Obviously, all the 1 seeds are going to be highly ranked. But they aren't 1 seeds BECAUSE they are highly ranked. We all know there are other metrics the committee uses.

You are just continuing to prove how little you know about college basketball. You should just stop. AP rankings have NOTHING TO DO WITH SEEDING in the NCAA tournament. Never have, never will. Let's look at last year, just as one example: AZ was a 4 seed. They were ranked #21 in the last...

They have as good a chance as anyone

Poll rankings picked by brain dead writers have NEVER been a criteria nor had influence over seedlings. This is one of the most ridiculous things I have ever heard.

You think the AP poll determines seedlings??? Lolololol

This is why it amazes me that you all get so worked up by these polls. How objective do you think this sportswriter from SYRACUSE is?? Meanwhile UNC loses twice to unranked teams and is still 24th, yet Seton Hall loses a barn burner to the #2 team in the country and then one to Butjer and...

I was obviously referring to 2014 team…..you know we’ve won 6 of these things, right??

Yes I have way more confidence in JStew

But remember, it wasn’t a bet
