Message: [QUOTE="Alydar, post: 5179148, member: 730"] I know. They use various reasons for seeding teams. Their rules give the committee chair a lot of latitude and over the years they have altered the importance they give to them. When they used RPI, they often used it as their primary tool. They now say that NET is their primary tool but rarely make it primary. But I read that every No 1 NET team since it's inception has been a one seed. IMO if your team is good enough your seed doesn't matter. Seeding college basketball is a lot of guesswork. Common opponents? The thing most forget is that it is a measure of an entire season an opposed to how good any team is at the moment, or at least that's what is said. The only thing about the whole seeding that irks me is that we talk about it for 11+ months and yet when the seeds are announced the interview of the chair lasts 2 minutes and most of the 2 minutes is spent praising the hard work of the committee.
