Message: [QUOTE="champs99and04, post: 2093388, member: 488"] My one seeds would have been Nova, Gonzaga, Duke, and Kentucky. Kansas gets bumped down to the two line for me for losing to TCU in the conference tournament. (I know they beat Duke and Kentucky but I simply don't think they're as good or as talented as those two). I'd have had North Carolina, Kansas, UCLA, and Louisville on the two line. My threes would be West Virginia, SMU, Baylor, and Arizona. Virginia, Florida State, Oregon, and Purdue would have been my fours. Other team I would have seeded differently: I would have given Rhode Island a seven, St. Mary's a five, Dayton a nine, Wisconsin a six, and Wichita State a six. Wake would have been a nine, Maryland would have been a ten, and Creighton would have been a nine. I would have ultimately mimicked it, in some way, after the Vegas odds. It's a tough balance to strike because I'm essentially penalizing Kansas and Arizona for winning a lot of close games, but I think that has to be considered, and I think you should try to minimize the amount of games where a lower seed is favored over a higher one.
