They also have Nova as a #6, ND as a #8 and Pitt as a #5. These are all teams that are behind us in conference and aside from Nova (the one that's .500 in BE play) both ND and Pitt have worse RPIs than us.

yeah I saw that - no way ND should get a higher seed than us today.

listen everyone...
ND is a legitimate gripe, but Nova is a better team then us and so is Pitt - Now I KNOW we beat both of those teams, but let me tell you - they will both have higher seeds than us in the tournament. I believe that...
Now we do our job and we will be fine, but please, after the performance of the last two games, anyone who says we are better than Nova and Pitt are insane.

also has clemson as a #6 seed, which is the nail in the coffin on this bracket projection

Maybe we aren't better than Pitt ... But to say that their resume is significantly better than ours right now is not right, either. They have an RPI of 42, with two good wins and one bad loss. They are 3-1 on the road, but that kind of speaks for itself. I think their resume will be better; they have gotten their team together and have two marquee wins. But for now, we should be seeded about the same. |

SF - i am not talking about resume...all i am saying is let's look at these three teams...let's look at their personnel, let's look at their best wins...I mean did you see the Kansas game for christmas sake??!?!! Pitt also came back and manhandled Syracuse, plus beat UConn... I just think that, in a totality of circumstances analysis, GU is the third best team in that trio. This has nothing to do with our seeding in this obviously ludicrous bracket which has Clemson as a six seed?  ?? |

Just that this post was about seeding, and putting Pitt so high right now seems crazy. That said, I also think we can beat both. |

As we have already beaten both on the road...I would say that your assessment that we CAN beat them is fairly realistic statement of fact.
Just joshing you big man... ;D

I agree with wssrules, this projection is a joke with Clemson as a #6 seed.
