St. Johns WAS scary b/c they have talent but they haven't played up to that talent the majority of the year. Were they seeded properly?
St. John's isn't in the NCAA tournament. Teams that hope to make the NCAA tournament that wind up in the NIT often disappoint. See Kentucky last year. junc wasn't agreeing with you because you sidetracked the whole thing by talking about seeding. It's not where they deserved to be seeded, it's which 8 seed is considered the most dangerous. I'm pretty sure junc agrees Kentucky is the most dangerous. Like I said, this has little to do with the AP poll. Would teams rather face Villanova or Michigan State?
My problem with you is that you want Kentucky ranked based on their potential, not their results. This is not the pre-season rankings. This is the NCAA tournament.
And for the record, I hope that every coach in the NCAA Tournament thinks that Villanova is the pushover that you think they are.
If I win the billion, I am going to buy the Jets and hire all of you to help me run the team.. Guaranteed Super Bowl within 3 years.
Where do I submit my resume?! The toughest part of my bracket is who comes out of the East and how. I really have no clue. I always leans towards Michigan State in toss ups because of Izzo, but UVA is on a roll and I think Villanova has a good shot of making it out since UVA/Mich State will have to knock each other out. I also want SF Austin to make the second weekend but of course they get matched up vs VCU.
I didn't say it was the preseason rankings. You keep ignoring what I said. Kentucky is the most dangerous 8 seed. You continue to try to spin this into something else. They are the most dangerous 8 seed, and Louisville is the most dangerous 4 seed. Regardless of what your AP poll or preseason rankings say. You could ask any coach. I don't care what seed Kentucky got. The point is that Wichita State got the toughest road of any 1 seed. You brought this whole thing up by trying to somehow claim they didn't.
I have 'Nova out in rd 2, either way I can't see them beating Carolina or Iowa State in Sweet 16 if they make it that far.
Do you even read my posts? I compared them to Michigan State due to your insistence that the AP poll somehow is the measure of how dangerous teams are. Where did I say they were a pushover? All I was saying is that it's blindingly obvious that people would rather face Iowa State or Villanova than Michigan State. This is not to say that Iowa State and Villanova are bad teams or "pushovers".
They're the one I'm most iffy on. I could see them out round 2 like you have, but they got a bad loss out of the way in the tournament. In theory, they should be focused and ready to go and they're a good team
I predict the winner will come from the following list: Florida Louisville Michigan State Virginia Kansas 2 #1s, 2 #4s, and 1 #2 I don't see Arizona winning it. However, they could easily make the final four because as difficult as Wichita State's region is, that's how easy Arizona's region is.
I think that's a given since you said SD State would win it all. I'm pretty sure they won't win it all, even if they wind up not facing Arizona.
