Tonight’s (1/27) Committee Reveal??

Bad comparison IMO. South Carolina has wins over Stanford, NC State, LSU, UCONN, Duke, Oregon, and Maryland and just 1 loss on the season.

UCONN has 4 losses and just 1 win over a ranked team (#19 Notre Dame). That's not worthy of a top 3 seed IMO.

As long as everyone is healthy, I’m ok with any seed, and I think Geno is too.
 
SC has wins against ranked teams like Oregon with top players injured, UConn with players not up to speed. Do you think SC would have an easy time against Oregon now and how bout UConn when Paige comes back. Ive been saying it all season. When healthy and up to speed UConn wont loose barring injuries and health issues. The Tenn game on Feb 6 will be a battle if UConn is healthy. Last nite showed how good of a shooting team UConn is and Paige wasnt playing 58% from the floor and 40% from 3 for the game and 70% from the floor and 62% from 3 in the second half. Pretty tuff to beat that.

So what seed will UConn be assigned in tonight’s committee reveal at halftime of the ole Miss vs. Scar game? Crem’s bracketology suggests a four seed. UConn should be a 3 with a shot at a two .

This morning’s rankings:
NET - 8th
Massey -8th
RPI - 9th
Coaches Poll - 9th
AP Poll - 10th
Nolan’s ELO - 11th

I just don’t see UConn as a four. To me, they are solidly a top 12 team and almost unquestionably so. BUT - Will politics in the committee cause the to rise to a 2? Or fall to a four? UConn bias or the Muffet factor?

Don’t see them going to a 4 as that would really piss off the one seed in that bracket with them. They’ll be a 2 or a 3 and if Paige comes back and looks healthy they’ll probably be a 2 especially if they beet Tennessee without Paige.
 
I am going with the majority here and agree that we get the 3 seed. I won't be shocked if we get the 4 seed either but the 3 seems legit.
 
It’s all about Tennessee. They are not going to lose a BE game. If they beat TN, and we get a few upsets at the top, there’s still an outside chance at a 1 seed. But they will definitely be no lower than a 2. A loss to TN maybe still a 2 or 3

These reveals do not consider region, correct? Just 1-16
 
Whatever the committee does is irrelevant. The only thing I want to see is who gets the 1 seed in Bridgeport. My guess is NCSt or Louis, whoever wins the ACC. But the way the season's been played you can toss the top 12, except for SCar, in a hat and pick names at random.
 
1 seeds: SC, Stanford, Nc st, Tenn
2 seeds: Arizona Indiana Louisville, Texas

Love ya Tony but I didn’t see a top flight defense last night from your opponent. I want y’all to beat the Vols but you aren’t going to approach those percentages in that game.

Absolutely no chance at a 1 seed

Probably not but it’s not impossible to see a couple of losses by the teams who would be the #1 seeds today. If UCONN runs the table……..who knows.
 
Uconn not put in Stamford regional due to 4 sec and 4 big 12 teams in the top 16. They would face #1 Stanford and #2 Texas.

Your right their defense wasnt top flight but they had the refs to make up for alot of it. We most likely wont shoot like we did against Depaul but I always like to dream big and to shoot for moon and miss you end up with the stars. I dont like Tenn and I have an autographed picture from Pat Summitt. I was a big part of the 37 page NCAA violation that they filed and I did nothing wrong. I did have a copy of it and I dont know where it is now maybe my wife threw it out when she was cleaning lol Every time Tenn looses its like Christmas for me. I hope we beat them by alot on Feb 6. I dont think Paige will be back but I hope she is. To beat Tenn without Paige well that would be very special.

Is K-State a top 16 club (haven't seen them play) or is this just Ayoka lee hype.

I think a month from now...whatever is revealed will be as unrecognizable as the preseason or week 1 rankings and now. With few exceptions...it's been a volatile season at some point or another for a lot of teams. Health and depth will go a long way in this year's tournament... and depending on the injury or absence even a home court advantage may not be enough.

Tennessee just lost one of their key players for the season.
Heightened level of competition = more injuries (unfortunately)

A few good wins and only 1 bad loss

Wins over Oregon Baylor and by 30 over oklahoma
Losses to nc st, so car, Iowa st, Tex, tex tech

She's legit. And on any given night...they could beat you. They start three freshman so to me that's their Achilles. And then...there's the iffy bench.
 
3 seed

perhaps they'll get their due if they get a win over Tennessee..........as of now, who of consequence has UConn beaten to deserve a higher seed?
