UCONN #5 (merged thread)

L'Ville loss means nothing. Nuts!

 

[WiseOne]

Well Louisville lost 4 games so they have to update this

 

[Centerstream]

Is this from today or last week?
Baylor now has 2 losses and I believe Louisville has 4.

 

[McFly]

Including yesterday's games. Don't know if it makes a difference concerning seeding.

Dunno how both UConn and MD ended up ahead of Baylor, but I'm not complaining.

As of right now (12:30PM EDT), the AP Poll on the NCAA website is for last week.
The weekly AP Poll is released around 1:30PM on Monday, normally.

UNLESS, you are just referring to the RPI ratings, then my bad.

 

[visitingcock]

That had to be last weeks ranking. It does not include Baylor's loss yesterday.

Updated RPI is:
1. SCar
2. Oregon
3. Maryland
4. UConn

Shouldn't those be the four #1 seeds?

So we're a one seed? If they use the s-curve that means we have to beat Baylor to get the final four. That would not change if the give Baylor the 1 seed based on head to head.

 

[cbraarj]

UConn should be in either Maryland or Baylor's region with Stanford in one of the other regions not with Oregon!

 

[Wbbfan1]

That's not the committee that's putting out this Ranking. Now if Baylor didn't win the Big 12 Post Season Tournament, that would upset the #1 Seedings. IF Baylor lost and UConn was ranked as the third #1 Seed, then UConn would go to Fort Wayne and Maryland would go to Dallas. However, most likely UConn would end up in Dallas with Baylor as the #2 Seed. I don't see Baylor losing in the Big 12 Post Season Tournament. That was a fluke loss by Baylor.

"If?"

Not necessarily. RPI is only a part of the criteria for seeding - and not the biggest piece when it comes to the top seeds.

If Baylor wins the B12 tournament, they will get a one seed based on a better resume, not just he H2H win. RPI is not that big a factor in seeding at the top.

I don't disagree, hence the "wink" photo in my post.

However, I do think that the committee must seriously consider how close UCONN is to the Top 4 . I think they deserve to be bracketed with the weakest One Seed - and that ain't in Portland or Greenville. #1 and # 2 are now set in stone, and UConn shouldn't have to face either.

But then, I'm not on the committee.
