They're definitely in but this team needs to relax and just go out and ball hard in the NCAA's. For such a veteran team they have looked like deer in the headlights the last few games.

With Oregon beat Utah and Xavier beating G'Town we can forget about a 7 seed.  I expect to see us in an 8/9 game, but will be rooting for a 10.

Other than Kentucky, I'm not sure there's a material difference between the likely 1 and 2 seeds this year. 7/8/9/10 are more interchangeable than normal with drawing UK being the lone short stick. 

I'm rooting for a good first round matchup and anyone but UK in round 2.

Palm's bracketology....  Still has us as a 7 seed vs. LSU.  They are a "long" team.

LSU doesnt worry me at all.  That loss to Auburn yesterday was possibly the worst coached game I saw in a long time by LSU's coach.

What a great finish in the American east championship. Some terrible basketball played in these low major conferences, but I'll never get tired of watching a three down by two and 2 seconds on the clock.

Not really a choke when up 2 seconds remaining you play good D force up a shot that hits the top of the backboard gets tipped out to a made contested 3. Also playing a higher seed on their home court.

Laundry (I love auto-correct: Lunardi) moved Wisc to a 1.  Fine.  But he drops...Virginia???  I had Virginia as the 2nd overall team.  I can see them dropping to 3rd, but I still think they have the 2nd best profile.  Three losses, but all to top 20 teams.  Nova lost to SHU, Wisky lost to Rutgers, Duke lost to Miami and NC State.  All three have great quality wins.  I just don't see Virginia getting a 2.

I agree. Plus, they're still getting used to having Anderson back.

I think the committee takes the fact that the Wiscy loss to Rutgers was without Kaminsky
