Battle for the east seed

[bendm]

If it comes down to Duke or Uconn to go play in the south in Houston vs Houston the committee will go with Uconn. Look at what they did in `24 putting Auburn as the #3(?) seed in the East when it shouldve been Duke. When asked about this by the CBS crew in an interview a committee member gave such a terrible response the blank look on their faces was apparent and afterwards they clearly said they didnt get the decision. Its easy. The committee protected duke from getting blown out by Uconn on national tv against that buzzsaw `24 team that destroyed the field for a second consecutive year.

It was 2 ISU 3 Illinois 4 Auburn but yes I agree with the sentiment. Can’t leave it up to the committee, force their hand.

Hard to predict what's going to happen with Florida and Alabama, if they come back into the picture at all. But if they don't...

I'd expect UConn in the EAST, Michigan in the MIDWEST, Arizona is WEST, and Duke is SOUTH.

Like UConn, Duke is playing watered down competition in the conference.

Only thing that would give me pause is that the EAST regional is in DC (so closer to Duke) while the SOUTH regional is all the way in Houston.

Whatever happens, UConn starts in Buffalo.

If UConn draws the South regional, I am NOT throwing a party if we somehow make the sweet 16.
