Seeding Outlook

[Tenspro2002]

With a decisive win tonight to counter the eye-test abortion that was last Saturday, and another top-50 RPI win to our name, I think the worst we can expect to be is a 6 seed.

With a win against Cincy tomorrow night, a 5 is likely. That's an important step to reach, as we can't be disadvantaged geographically.

Hopefully other top-20 teams flame out early in their conference tournaments and make this easy for us.

I think our floor is now the 5 with Oklahoma losing to Baylor today. I'd say our ceiling is the 4 with wins over cinci and louisville.

Only the top 4 seeds are protected geographically I believe.

Geography is overrated. We are Uconn.

What I say is f#cking enjoy it!

1 Game at a time!

Let's kill those f#cking bearcats! And that leprechaun of a coach!

I can't see us falling below a 5 seed now.

The 94, 95, 98, 03, and 09 teams would like a word.

4 seeds are not protected, they fill in the blank with what is left over

Is this one of those Senhor-type threads?

Listen. A portion of the board spent the last few weeks obsessing about getting a seed that would avoid playing Memphis at home. That obsession was proved foolish.

Why obsess about seeding in the NCAA's? This year in particular, the seed doesn't matter. It's all about matchups and there's no way to know what the matchups will be.

2006 too.

1999, 2004 and 2011 would like a rebuttal
