March 12, 201610 yr I believe UK has locked up at least a 4 seed and possibly a chance at a 3 seed still if they win the Sec tournament. My question is which seed do you want them to get. They may have a shot to be in the Louisville region if they are a 4 seed since they may be the top 4 seed. While if a 3 seed they may be put out west.
March 12, 201610 yr If the 3 seed takes them farther away I would take the 4 and play closer to home. Personally I think the committee will place UK as close to Kentucky as they can even if it changes their seed. For one reason and one reason only, ticket sales.
March 12, 201610 yr I'd take the 16 seed for UK to be in the Louisville region. If they are in that region and make it to the sweet 16, gonna be very tough to keep them out of the Final Four IMO.
March 12, 201610 yr I'd say a possible #3 if they win or if they lose close and a possible #5 if they lose bad. I think the committee will use the excuse if that happens will be their losses to Ohio State, UCLA, Auburn, and Tennessee, LSU, and possibly Vandy with none of the 5 for sure and maybe 6 teams not making the tourney. Could be if the Cats were to lose tomorrow that only 2 out of 8 losses would be to teams that make the tournament.
March 12, 201610 yr The three seed means that you don't to play the #1 seed until the final four. I take three.
March 12, 201610 yr The three seed means that you don't to play the #1 seed until the final four. I take three. The thing is, there isn't a legit 1 seed this season. The tourney is wide open, I would be surprised is more than one, #1 seed makes it to the final four this year.
March 13, 201610 yr The three seed means that you don't to play the #1 seed until the final four. I take three. You mean the Elite 8?
March 13, 201610 yr You mean the Elite 8? Your good, How did you know what I meant???? Thanks Sir!!!!!
March 13, 201610 yr Everything I've read says what happens tomorrow doesn't matter and I think UK is sitting at a 3 seed now

March 13, 201610 yr I've said no worse than 4-5 all along, even before they started hitting their stride. 3 seed.
March 13, 201610 yr If they somehow do end up as a 4, they would likely be the top No. 4 seed...which isn't necessarily a bad thing.
March 13, 201610 yr If the 3 seed takes them farther away I would take the 4 and play closer to home. Personally I think the committee will place UK as close to Kentucky as they can even if it changes their seed. For one reason and one reason only, ticket sales. Isn't the Louisville Regional already sold out? Ticket sales are little factor anyway given the mega contract that the NCAA has for television rights. It is even less of a factor concerning Kentucky since their fans buy tickets no matter where they go.
