Maryland’s chance of being undefeated is very slim, MST would give the most a fit. Even if they manage to remain Undefeated, i will say they would not become the 3rd or 4th #1 seed.
In the poll, The Lady Turtles were dead last with only 2 votes. Brenda’s team plays in one of the weaker P5 conferences and their OOC schedule is full of cupcakes, but if they navigate a few road bumps in the BIG as well as coming out on top in the conference tournament, they have a decent chance of heading into the Big Dance undefeated.

With just about all the other top teams not located in Storrs looking like they’re going to have one or more losses, MD might just find themselves in Greensboro as the #1 seed.

We were talking about the top 4 seeds.
Since they could be a no. 5/6 seed, they could be sent to Portland, and that was what I meant! They will not be a top 16 team hence not a #4 seed.

Not if you look at their schedule. #5 MD has only 3 games left in the regular season vs ranked teams: at #22 MI St, at #16 Iowa, home vs #13 MN. If they survive those games, MD would certainly be the favorite and #1 seed in the conference championship.

I would wanna be the 2 seed in Greensboro if that happened!

Im personally hoping for a 1) Miss State 2) Maryland 3) Nc State 4) Oregon State Regional here in Greensboro.




As the #1 seed in Greensboro? Really unlikely. Only if another west coast school is also a #1 seed.

Oregon could be the #1 in Portland.

NC State could well end up ahead of Maryland given SOS.

I wanna see some new faces .. no offense to Louisville... but I see them every year. :cool:
Geez, who knew Triad could be so temperamental! In fairness to conferences and individual team strength, UConn, ACC winner (ND?) and PAC12 winner will be #1 seeds. Only caveat is if the PAC12 beat each other up so much the winner has 4 losses. Then the battle between MSU, Baylor or #2 ACC for the 4th #1 seed. Most assuredly a top ACC team will be in Greensboro. Is this the year they put SC local provided they can right the ship and be a top team...not looking like it at the moment.:rolleyes:

You know OSU and UO are going to be hungry to be placed in the Portland, OR, regional. Extra motivation for both teams to play their guts out come PAC-12 play. Stanford too for that matter (being on the west coast).

If the Gamecocks win out, they may be the 2 seed in Greensboro. Yes, I'm an eternal optimist.

I think Louisville is still a #1 seed (and FWIW Creme has said the same thing).

The bigger question is who ends up being two seeds around the country.

I suspect Oregon gets a 1 seed even if the do lose one in the conference tournament and Baylor is a one seed somewhere because they breeze through a weak Big12 but the could well end up in Chi town.

With Louisville and Miss St both losing to unranked teams this week and Uconn having lost their two games, and ND and their losses ... the other two #1s and all the #2s are in play. I think Uconn ends up as the third or fourth #1 and I suspect either ND or Louisville will win out from here and get the 4th/3rd #1.

Most wide open seeding for the top two lines in a long time

I would like to see some combination of Miss State, NC State, Oregon State, Maryland, South Carolina, Baylor. With my luck... it will be something like Louisville, Marquette, Central Florida and Arizona State Head bang

Here’s an interesting thought to ponder: right now, as the ACC standings sit, Miami is #1, ND is #2 and Louisville is #3 so Louisville and ND would meet in the semi’s!

So here’s what I ask you (and anybody else), if ND wins out and beats Louisville in these Semi’s, and MSU wins out are the #1 Seeds Baylor, Oregon, UConn and MSU?

If ND wins out, they will overtake MSU and probably UConn as well.
I'm also not sure that Louisville drops behind UConn and MSU if they only lose to ND.
