Message: [QUOTE="JoePgh, post: 2009059, member: 1131"] ESPN has Charlie Creme's latest Bracketology up: [URL="http://www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/bracketology"]Bracketology with Charlie Creme[/URL] Several interesting items: [LIST=1] [*]He has four entries from the AAC: UConn (1), USF (7), Temple (8), and Tulane (9). [*]UConn's bracket includes both of the teams that they faced in last season's Final Four: Oregon State (2) and Syracuse (8). That's quite a drop for Syracuse from the final game to an 8 seed, although I believe that they were a 7 seed last year. [*]Other teams in UConn's bracket that hold some interest: Duke (3), DePaul (5), Kansas State (6) and LSU (9). I'm a little surprised that LSU and Tulane weren't made 8 and 9 in the same bracket to sort out dominance in the land of the exiled Acadians. [*]Baylor has Notre Dame as its 2-seed, setting up another Elite 8 match which Baylor lost a few years ago in South Bend. But this one, if it occurs, will be in Oklahoma City. [*]Maryland is a 3-seed in South Carolina's bracket, behind Washington (Plum / Osahor). I would think that they should beat Washington, but Maryland lost early last year. [/LIST] Not that any of this is actually going to happen ... [/QUOTE]
