Message: [QUOTE="kobe, post: 2094016, member: 3624"] There is no weight given to the place you finish in the conference especially with the unbalanced schedules. Duke had the 3rd hardest schedule in the ACC while UNC who finished 1st had the 12th hardest. Duke played all 8 of the other NCAA tournament teams on the road (plus Syracuse) while UNC only played 4 of the 8. That's why the standings are irrelevant. Remember UConn finished 9th in the Big East and got a 3 seed after winning the conference tournament. I think Duke cost themselves the 1 seed by losing to NC State at home and that neutral game against Kansas. Had they won those two, they'd clearly be a 1 seed to me. [/QUOTE]
