UC's style will give trouble to a lot of teams in the Big Dance.

 

Kentucky a #1 seed and UC a #4/5 in the same region?

 

I could see it happening, but also hoping Cats make the #1 seed line. Not sure UC would have enough to be a #3 seed if the Cats are a #2.

For UC, it depends on if (and how long) they continue their current run. #3 or #4 are possibilities.

I'd say a 4 seed is probably the ceiling for UC. Not a knock on them, they're a very good team, but in that conference it'll be hard for them to put a resume together that stacks up with the other top 12 or so teams IMO.

Win out and win the conference, they'd be a 2/3 seed at 31-2.

That is most likely true. Right now they are a 4 seed. Teams in front of them are going to lose, probably all of them are going to lose at least once. If UC wins out, I agree a 3 seed with an outside shot at a 2. UC fans should be rooting for XU the rest of the way. The Bearcats need that win to look good.

I was very happy to see UC put up a nice offensive performance against a solid team. X has to be a little worried. I know their schedule of late has been brutal but go 2-2 or 1-3, not 0-4 against all the ranked teams. It looked like Mic told his players that the X guys cannot guard you...just attack the rim...love the strategy. Then when X went zone, to say UC abused them on the glass is an understatement. I am enjoying watching this UC team more and more each time I watch them.
