Message: [QUOTE="nwhoopfan, post: 2618493, member: 7894"] This post made me think of seeding for the women's volleyball tourney, which causes much grumbling and gnashing of teeth every year. They place an emphasis on minimizing travel costs and not so much on the relative strength of the teams. They only seed the top 16 overall and after that it's a crap shoot. One team (like Penn St. almost every year) could have 3 of the worst teams in the tourney in their pod for 1st and 2nd round games, while a Hawaii team that is ranked in the top 10 most years has to face off against a top Pac 12 in the 2nd round. It's ridiculous. Women's hoops fans should rejoice that they don't have to deal w/ that kind of nonsense. [/QUOTE]
