Final Number One Seed

Not open for further replies.
As someone pointed out in another thread, even if Stanford doesn't get a 1 seed,
they'll still be a 2 at home playing a collection of teams only marginally more
difficult than the 1 seed will play.

As a 2, their road to the final four would not be much tougher than if they were
a 1.
 
Most everybody is overlooking WVU! Except for UCONN & ND WVU is the hottest team in the country! If they do beat Baylor in Big 12 finals they deserve a #1 seed! The problem is Stanford losing to USC in Semi's takes their #1 seed out! You should have:
UCONN #1 @ Lincoln
ND #1 @ ND
Stanford #2 @ Stanford / if TN wins SEC they're #1 @ Stanford
WVU or Baylor winner #1 @ L'ville

Duke can get a #1 seed f they beat ND not losing
If KY beats TN L'ville could be a #1 @ L'ville
that sends Baylor /WVU winner to Stanford as #1

YIKES!!!!!!!!!
 
After watching Louisville today I want to petition for Baylor as a 1 or 2 seed at Louisville. USF is listed as last out of the tourney and Louisville beat them by 4. Lame.

Shouldn't you have been watching your own team who was playing the same exact time?

Louisville played a bad game and found a way to win at the end against a team fighting for it's NCAA life.

Perhaps we should judge Baylor on one game too. Like the Kansas loss.

TODAY Baylor beat a RANKED Oklahoma state team and Louisville escaped an unranked team. There really shouldn't be an argument here.

That's the beauty if the "Previous Channel" button.

Too funny. Demons to exorcise?
 
The most important thing for the committee should be to present possible great matchups, its the people watching on TV that will make the Women's games relevant, not how many fans at the tournament sites. If you give them great matchups, people will go to the games, but you need to sell the casual fans on how good the women are.

Said it before Baylor 1 seed at Stanford 2 seed, Tennessee 1 seed at Louisville 2 seed, Notre Dame 1 seed with West Virginia 2 seed, UConn 1 seed in Lincoln with either Duke or Kentucky as 2 seed.

You forgot South Carolina. Where do you put them?

ding, ding, ding. that is the correct answer. There is no difference between 1 or 2. Playing at home is more important, and being healthy.

Except for the Two at the Top, I don't remember ever seeing this much parity in wcbb. In any given game, anyone can look terrible.

Or as an optimist might say, "look great" in any given game. Since Baylor is not top 2, I'll go with "look great."

Well, take in myriad of losses that Tennessee had including at home and to whom? Some of their losses were horrific. I think a bad loss, particularly at home, takes away at least two or three quality wins. Meanwhile, Louisville did not! They played the Huskies about as well as anyone, didn't they and not once but twice.

I couldn't agree more! Who is Kansas and what kind of impressive resume to they have. Are they tourney bound or on the bubble???? The object of basketball is to win and I know I'm bummed when UConn doesn't dominate some of these top teams that they play but the reality is they even if a win is only by 10 or 12 points when I feel they've played less than stellar, they have that big "W" to walk away with. South Florida has played very good basketball this year, particularly on the defensive end and Louisville came out on top. I've said again and again that they're not in the same class as UConn and Notre Dame but who is???? I can guarantee you that USF would have some success against some of the teams that people are being thrown around for the last No. 1 seed and those No. 2 seeds. Louisville gets a chance to go after the Huskies again tomorrow. We'll see how they do!
 
I suspect that neither Baylor nor Louisville will get a 1 seed since UT won the SEC tourney. One seeds will be UCONN at Louisville, ND at ND, UT in Lincoln and Stanford at Stanford

Creme thinks a 2 seed with Notre Dame. I think that's a good guess. If Stanford gets a 1 we could be a 2 with them. I'd like that because we can beat Stanford.
 
Intriguing at the start...could be infuriating by the end...
 
Friends, I'm not sure which I'll wind up finding more entertaining - this thread, or the actual selections.
