Message: [QUOTE="Bear11, post: 3047341, member: 7934"] In general I agree with this thought. However, if Notre Dame wins out but loses the ACC championship to Louisville, then the committee would be in a pickle. The only way to keep them in Chicago as a 2 seed would be to pair them with Baylor. If Baylor is still in the top 2 at that point, that would break the S-curve pretty badly. I know the NCAA has different priorities than pure bracket integrity, but it would be pretty bad to assign the overall number one one of the tougher 2 seeds, especially when there is a massive dropoff in quality between the top 6 and the next few teams. That being said, I have little confidence in the NCAA to do the right thing, should that scenario come about. Notre Dame should just win the ACC to keep things simple. Then we could get a nice fun rematch with Mississippi State. [/QUOTE]
