Lady Vols are up to 30. If they have any victories at all they will be #25 just in time for their game with us :)
Only if they beat Arkansas and maybe Georgia or Alabama. They lose to LSU, it doesn't mater who they beat.
Massey rates Arkansas 15, Georgia 17, and Alabama 24, while LSU is 97th.

If this were the end-of-the-season committee rankings, we might end up with a bracket like this:

1 Stanford / 6 Baylor / 10 Kentucky / 16 Ohio St
2 Louisvil / 7 Arizna / 12 Maryland / 14 Miss St
3 NC St .../ 8 Tx A&M / _9 UCLA ..../ 13 Arkansas
3 UConn .../ 5 So Car / 11 Oregon ../ 15 Michigan

Just replace Ohio State with Texas as OSU is postseason ineligible -- but yeah. I'm fine with putting South Carolina in UConn's bracket.

For comparison, if we used NET:

1. Stanford / 9. Louisville / 10. Maryland / 17. Texas A&M
2. UConn / 8. Kentucky / 11. UCLA / 16. Georgia
3. Baylor / 7. NC State / 12. Michigan / 15. Arkansas
4. Oregon / 5. South Carolina / 13. Rutgers / 15. Indiana

They and ND just have to put on a Uni to get votes, that is until last year seems they now have to at least win a game or two. They both have talent don't seem to know what to do with it. :confused:

OH I didn't realize that OhioSt was ineligible.

Note in your bracket you'd have to put a B10 team in UConn's bracket, so likely swap Georgia & Indiana.

Yeah, I wasn't too worried about putting teams in the correct region at this point in the season, more of providing a rough sketch for where teams could end up using NET vs. the AP Poll. It'll be interesting to see how the committee uses the new tool, and once I dig into how NET is treating Mid-Majors.....I'll be curious.

Yeah, I'd say that Creme shouldn't include Ohio State at this juncture since they are ineligible.

And if the national tournament winds up with all games played in the same venue (or city or state), to what extent will regional “balance” even be a factor?

With one location, the committee will no longer have to worry about putting teams in regions "close to home." But the other two main criteria remain -- have balanced brackets and keeping conference foes away from each other (eg, no conference rematches until the sweet 16, conference teams with top-4 seeds in separate brackets, etc). If not for the latter, the committee would be able to use the S-curve as is.

Where is Arizona? Surely a loss to the #1 team shouldn’t drop them out of the top 18?

Arizona isn’t in the top 18 of the NET. While they are still in the Top 15 of the AP, they’re actually ranked at 21 in the NET.

Well, I thought with the whole Tournament being in San Antonio, straight seeding (1-64) by the committee (NET?) would occur:
1-8-9-16 would be Stanford/TAM/UCLA/tOSU (Elite 8 game is Stan-UCLA)
2-7-10-15 is Lou/Ariz/Ky/Mich
3-6-11-14 is UConn/Baylor/Oregon/MSU
4-5-12-13 NC St/SC/Maryland/Arkansas

Is Iowa ever going to get ranked this year? It's not like several of the Top 25 teams haven't really beaten anybody so far.

Washington St. near the end of the teams also receiving votes. When is the last time that happened? I honestly have no clue.

Yeah. I should have been clearer that I was actually referencing ESPN's hype machine. ESPN would like nothing better than promoting a "TOP 25 CLASH BY TWO ARCH-RIVALS!" or something like that. There's no way LV's get into the top 25 in two weeks.

I have a hard time seeing that both Louisville and NC State can stay as top 4 teams and both be #1 seeds. I think South Carolina will probably move up.
