Creme/ESPN Bracketology 3/10

Just out of curiosity, they said they will have 4 reserve teams incase of a COVID shutdown. Will those be the first 4 out? Will they be in a holding pattern and thus could not make the WNIT and then miss both?

Interesting I had not heard that. Got a link?
Am gonna guess WNIT is not going to want to wait a week plus.
but you’ve got some P5 schools (eg ND) that would probably turn down a WNIT bid anyway
 
Maybe it’s me but any of the top 8 have a chance at a National Championship. There is zero home court advantage for anyone except maybe the Texas teams. In a year where there wasn’t a great deal of non conference games to gauge and reference some of these match ups. There is usually always a holiday tournament upset or 2! Maybe that’s destined for the NCAAs this year. I can see it.

Creme must have updated prior to the Mountain West final. So assuming Fresno State would slide in where he has New Mexico there would be a very interesting second round game between Gonzaga and the Bulldogs, assuming Haley and Hannah could defeat Harper and company. Twins all over the court.

I think Gonzaga played Stanford last year, so there would've been 3 sets of twins in that game as well. Probably would tie the record.

Kitties from Tucson are in South Carolina's region. Barring upset they'd have an opportunity to show their stuff against either North Carolina State or Iowa if the Hawkeyes could pull a Bunky Hackleroad. If Clark could lead her team past NC State I'd love to watch McDonald chase her around. Although come to think of it maybe Barnes would have Thomas try to slow down Clark. Wonder if Clark would exceed her season average against McDonald and company.

I thought the S-curve meant that the #2 overall seed played the #7 overall seed. If Connecticut is in the same bracket as Baylor, that means that Baylor is #7 overall? If so, that's insane. Baylor is #3 overall in NCAA's own NET
rankings (also #3 in Massey), and vying with Connecticut as the best statistical team in the country. They've lost once since the preseason SEC/Big 12 Challenge, and have gone 17-1 in the 3rd best power conference.

Yes, Baylor is #7. They have 0 high quality wins.

Also, Baylor was #8 in the last committee top 16.
 
The second NCAA reveal was on February 28.

Since that time, UConn beat Marquette by 10 on March 1. Did the low MOV cause UConn to slip from #1 to #2 overall?

Also since then, Stanford won the Pac-12 tourney, including a 20-point win over UCLA. Does that move Stanford up?

Charlie said that he switched UConn and Stanford after the Stanford game. He did NOT take into account the Big East Tournament finals, which negated the close MOV in the UConn game of March 1.

Does Creme get inside intel from the NCAA? Why does he think the committee will switch UConn and Stanford? I can see being impressed by Stanford's play, but not moving them over another team who won out convincingly.

While watching the PAC final, I thought Stanford could move to #1. They had an impressive run through a fairly difficult conference tournament.

Creame may think so, but I'm hard pressed to believe the committee will see it the same way. Stanford would have had to dominate even more than they did and even then committee's can be pretty stubborn.
 
Charlie may be following the NET, but the NET has Baylor at #3, whereas the NCAA has them at #7.

Adia needs some shooters in her next recruiting class! She’s done a great job there but if she’s going to get to the level she is aiming for, she has to get some players who can score some points efficiently. McDonald has been a real game changer and deserves a lot of credit but this team, as it is currently constructed, is not going to score enough points to beat the elite teams.

Pueyo looked good as a Fr. but has been mostly M.I.A. this season. She has a nice stroke, maybe she'll get back on track next year.

I still concur with MooseJaw from the previous thread, Stanford Now #1 Seed? Seriously?.....
Charlie: Is he a Creme Puff or a Boston Creme Pie ? I’ll stick with Creme Puff just like MooseJaw!

Those reserve teams go away once the tournament starts. If a co-vid issue occurs, the affected team would have to forfeit.

The net has Texas A&M # 12, yet Charlie has them as a #1 seed. Good case for Stanford or UConn overall #1. We will see Monday. Will be interesting

Charlie had them as a 1 since the Committee had them as the three seed overall in the last reveal. Since then they’ve beaten South Carolina, and lost to Georgia, can’t imagine much movement.
 
Charlie is mostly sour creme, but when we get thru with him on here he will be whipped creme. :) I would like to thank him for making bracketology a fun thing to ponder over the years tho.
