March 10, 201115 yr Author I'd say UK at this point is at worst a 5 seed, that's even if they lose Friday, I say this bc other teams around their seed will suffer a loss this week. Each game they win this week is a probable increase in seed from a 5 seed, with a 3 seed being as high as I see them getting. If UK can make it to the championship game I'd say they're likely a 4 seed, win it and they may be lucky enough to get a 3 seed. Given the drop off from likely 1 seeds to likely 2 seeds, I think it would really benefit UK's tournament chances to get a 3 seed. As for UC I was kind of surprised to see that as well, perhaps it will go up after the hurting they put on USF tonight, not that USF is a good team but they got their butts whooped tonight. I think UC should end up a 5 seed, but a good showing in their conference tournament will certainly help their cause. This seems like one of the more exciting conference tournament weeks in a recent memories because there isn't any clear cut favorite in any of the power conferences with the exception of tOSU. At this point, I'd have both UC and UK as 5 seeds, with the possibility of both moving up with a few more wins. If UC makes it to the finals of the BEast tourney, that would give them a win over #4 Notre Dame (projected 2 seed) and another win over either Louisville (projected 4 seed) or Marquette. In that situation, they're at worst a 4 seed, and possible 3 seed. UK is in the same boat. Make it to the finals, 4 seed...run the table, 3 seed. I think UC any lower than a 6 seed, regardless of what happens tonight is a joke, IMO.

March 11, 201115 yr Would much rather have UC's draw in that bracket. I agree with this and your last post.
March 11, 201115 yr So, how does losing by 38 impact UC's seed?? Dunno, haven't looked at the newest bracketology but Leonardi moved ND ahead of Duke as the 4th #1 seed.
March 11, 201115 yr Author 3/11 Southwest: 6 Cincinnati 11 Colorado Winner gets 3 San Diego St I'll take that all day. Southeast: 4 Kentucky 13 Harvard Winner gets 5 Xavier or 12 Michigan St/12 Virginia Tech Uk's potential sweet 16 game? None other than the #1 seed Notre Dame Irish.
