I don't think Indiana will get left out.

Switch Miami with IU and I think you got it.

The selection committee should put Wisconsin in IU's bracket.

I don't really remember a year when the seeding was this wide open.

The overall #1 status is overrated.

Wow. Oregon gets a 12. Not a good sign for the Pac-12.

Indiana #1 in East then? Wow, Duke #2, Ohio state will either be the three here or out west.

Most seeding is overrated - beat your opponent and you move forward - and you don't know who your opponent will be because every year upsets happen. The belly-aching that someone was a 2 seed instead of a 1 seed (as an example) got old years ago. What is more important is having a favorable geographic pod location in the first two rounds.

Can someone post the region by region matchups? Had to take the gf out tonight and she was hungry so I'm stuck here with no TV

I think Bucks get a 2 out West.

I knew St. Mary's wasn't as safe as all of the bracketologists seemed to think. First 4 game.
