March 16, 201412 yr Depends on whose projections you look at. I've seen them as low as #4, but no chance they'll be a one. No matter what happens over tonight and tomorrow, three #1 seeds are already locked in: Florida, Wichita State, and Arizona, the fourth #1 is up for grabs...right now, for me, if Michigan wins the Big Ten tourney, they are my fourth #1. But I think the committee for the most part has their 4 #1s figured out, depending on outcomes of games, one may be sent away from their geographic region, but "they" know who the 4 teams will be right now. Big Ten games end immediately before the Bracket announcements I think both Mich and Mich St will be seeded way before the end of that game...as I said in another thread CBS has to have the Brackets about an hour or so prior to the show to get graphics ready for the show.
March 16, 201412 yr Louisville has played a mid major schedule. 22 of their wins are against teams with an RPI ranking of 100 or higher. If I were an AD and Louisville get a 1 seed then I would never schedule a tough game again.
March 16, 201412 yr Duke getting a 1 when they finished 3rd in their conference is crazy. With that said they will be no lower than a 2. I think Louisville is in the mix for a 1 along with Virginia. Villanova could still get it as well. Michigan if they win the Big 10
March 16, 201412 yr UL SOS 100 NCSOS 163 Conf SOS 109 RPI 23 I think that a #2 is the best they can hope for seeing that. Should be a 3 or 4 but will probably get a 2 based off of the way they are playing right now.

If I were an AD and Louisville get a 1 seed then I would never schedule a tough game again. Make them a 10 seed... It doesn't matter. Their play speaks for itself.
March 16, 201412 yr Big Ten games end immediately before the Bracket announcements I think both Mich and Mich St will be seeded way before the end of that game...as I said in another thread CBS has to have the Brackets about an hour or so prior to the show to get graphics ready for the show. What I'm saying is that Michigan would be my 4th #1 based on the Big Ten final, but the committee knows who the 4 number ones are at the end of tonight, the only thing the outcome of games tomorrow will change is if someone were to steal a bid or a team (with a loss) could be shipped to a geographic region not their own, a penalty of sorts, but not severe enough to affect the way they will play the tournament out.
March 16, 201412 yr Make them a 10 seed... It doesn't matter. Their play speaks for itself. Yes it does. They are playing well
March 16, 201412 yr Bracketology has them at a #4 Make them a 10 seed... It doesn't matter. Their play speaks for itself. Just stating the facts
March 16, 201412 yr Louisville has played a mid major schedule. 22 of their wins are against teams with an RPI ranking of 100 or higher. If I were an AD and Louisville get a 1 seed then I would never schedule a tough game again. True, but they are playing very good right now; maybe better than anyone.
March 16, 201412 yr Lunardi doesn't currently have Louisvlle projected as a 1 or 2 seed. I'm pretty confident they will be a 2 or a 3.
March 16, 201412 yr UL RPI and SOS will keep them from getting a one or Two seed IMO. A three seed is most likely option with a possibility of a 4. If they are a 4 seed I'd be one ticked off one seed in the bracket.
