2 AAC teams likely to make it yet they couldn't find room for USF in the other 3 regions? Between this and the treatment of the men's teams by the committee and the silence from the AAC comish is pretty cowardly IMO.


Agreed. When I saw that it made me sick. Really. And why put Kentucky and Louisville in the same bracket, they have already played this season!?!?!

I'm ok with having number 11 as the 2 seed in the region, even though the committee stinks.

Kentucky as a #2 ??? :eek:

I have to imagine that was due to seeding and hosting? Kentucky is a host and Louisville is not? I think Louisville is the defacto 2 but because they couldn't drop USF to a 7 seed they dropped Ville to a 3?

I could not agree more.

Absolutely ridiculous to put SF in Uconn's bracket.

THEY'VE PLAYED 3 TIMES!!!!

Because I don't believe anyone on the committee is ignorant enough to not know what's up, I am convinced this is to make sure 2 AAC teams don't advance "too far".

Committee is definitely playings tricks when it comes to AAC men's and women's teams, under seeding, leaving teams out, and stacking them in same region. I can understand if there were 4-5 AAC teams but 2?

I so agree. I do not understand the thinking of the committee members.

I think Duke is headed to the Spokane region and UNC to the Greensboro region as the #4 seed :mad:

Do people really believe this is a conspiracy? What they should really do is cut down the number of teams. No more than 32 for sure, and even better if you cut it down to 20-24, basically make the first round a play in for the Sweet 16. I'd almost rather the last two teams standing play a best of 3 than watch the first and second rounds where teams are getting slaughtered by 60 or 70 points.

So looks like Tenn fans get their wish being in the same bracket as Maryland. They were scared they'd be in ND's region. They think they can handle Maryland. Not so much on handling ND...

I really don't understand why the committee wants teams that have already played during the season to play again???


Syracuse already played South Carolina and their reward, a rematch in the second round

I agree with you guys but... Tennessee lost to ND WITH Harrison. Without her I think they know it would be an even bigger beatdown. At least they have not faced Maryland yet and feel they have a better shot...

UTC has to possibly play Tennessee in Knoxville after they already played them this season.


I really don't get it


It's unfair to these teams
