Also, if Tulane somehow beats Memphis, I think we need to win to make sure we aren't out completely. It goes without saying that Tulane would be the one horrible loss we have avoided so far.

Good to know.

Should be safely out of the first four now. No way this team loses to Tulane if they got by Memphis who shot lights out yesterday and won't do that again.

I don't understand how Joe didn't move us at all after the temple win. I swear before the game we were the top of the first 4 in, and that's where we still are, except temple moved in underneath us. I just don't get it. I would bet it's a ploy to entice viewers for tomorrow's game.

Stop, please. Enough of these insufferable threads/posts about maybe being out. You are wrong, we are in no matter what we do tomorrow.

Just stop looking at it... we are in and thus anyone claiming to know what the seed is is just guessing.

If UConn wins tomorrow regardless of whether its Memphis or Tulane I think we are a 10.
I'd rather be a 10 than in the 8/9 game, it's all about matchups though.

Lunardi moved us out of last 4 in and said a loss to Tulane wouldn't affect us (just now on ESPN2). Stop the madness. We're dancing.

Maybe a 9 but 10 sounds about right. We may be a 10 right now.

I think we are locked into our seed. A loss tomorrow could drop us a line (maybe more if it was Tulane) but I don't think a win moves us up. Like I said, 10 would be ideal for us.

I don't know about you guys but I'm still holding out hope for the 8/9 game against Pitt in Nova's region with the opening weekend in Brooklyn.
Easily the best case scenario for us.

I understand that a 10 seed can be better than a 9 seed in some cases, but I've got to be honest with you; if we win the tourney championship tomorrow and we are a 10 seed, then somebody on that committee needs to be b#$ch-slapped. I can't understand or accept any scenario where we are lower than an 8 seed if we win it tomorrow. That's essentially saying that we are in the top 32 of the country (8 seeds x 4 brackets), which sounds about right to me...

Nobody'd show up for that game.

Fine give us a 7 seed, those work out sometimes right?

That's actually what I'm hoping for if we win tomorrow. Not just for the historical implications, but for the respect factor as well...
