Considering NC State's Record and league they played in they deserve the #1 Seed they got. However were they the most talented team of the teams that were competing for a #1 Seed, no they weren't. Baylor obviously has the better athletes/players and IMO is a significantly better team. However the Big 12 was rated below the ACC and thus Baylor got the #2 Seed instead of a deserved #1 Seed. IMO Maryland was also a better team and despite last night's loss to Texas, I think they would have blown out NC State even if they were completely healthy.
