Message: [QUOTE="ScuderiaDiU, post: 3887070, member: 11050"] So you want to base seeds on one game? Not the whole body of work? What if team A beats team B by 1 point, in OT, on team A's home court, in November? Nothing else from the entire rest of the season matters? See, if a power rating system used that kind of logic, it would be awful. Massey is pretty good. The men are covered by even better systems but Massey is what we have. And, frankly, it is far better than any of the armchair experts I have ever encountered. If Massey says that Baylor is a 1 seed, they probably should be a 1 seed. They may not make it to the final four but, statistically speaking, they have a better shot than either NC State or Texas A&M. And just to add fuel to the fire, I will go on record as saying that Oregon may be an even more dangerous team than either NC State or Texas A&M. Yes, they have struggled to win games but they are a very dangerous team. They are solid on both ends of the floor and that makes them dangerous if they get hot. Maryland, in contrast, is too weak on D to win it all, as an example. [/QUOTE]
