i filled my bracket out already on yahoo and on the first bracket i filled out i got syracuse - uconn final game...

bucknell upsetting memphis in the 2nd round

dont worry though... ill be refilling it about 3 or 4 different times

Rusty27 · March 13th, 2006, 07:23 AM

Tennessee a #2
Hey,we may make it to the 2nd round after all
NC a # 3,but they will make it to the elite 8, the Vols won't.

Tennessee a #2 is just bad. I think this selection crew was stoned when they did this last night.

George Washington a #8 seed but top 15 in the nation?

I'm looking forward to that UNC/Tenn match-up rusty!

Rusty27 · March 13th, 2006, 08:29 AM

The selection committee doesn't look only at Tennesee's finish to the season.
If they did,I would agree with you.I know they suck right now,but it's based on the entire season.For the season as a whole,they should be a high seed.Also they finished #6 in the RPI.

BtownJay · March 13th, 2006, 08:36 AM

What was Tenn. ranked in the polls? 14th? I fail to see how that turns into a 5th through 8th ranking... but whatever, not a big deal. Just an error that they are ranked higher than Gonzaga and UNC, IMO.

Rusty27 · March 13th, 2006, 08:42 AM

If it was one person picking the field,I could see it being an error.The commitee must have had reasons(even though I have no idea what they would be)LOL

Oh i'm sure they do, and lets face it, they know MUCH more than you or I. It just seems odd to me. Like I said, its not a big deal because it's between a #2 and #3 seed. But who would have thought that we would be talking about UNC and Tennessee being #2 and #3 seeds in the tourney. Was UT even predicted to be in the NCAA tourney? I know UNC was supposed to be in the NIT.

well i filled out my bracket..don't wanna give away my picks unless mike definitely says the tourny bracket isn't gonna be done....if thats the case...someone start a rant one on yahoo and we can all do it over there

Gunnerman · March 13th, 2006, 10:29 AM

Yeah I was wondering about that, wasn't there supposed to be some kinda sooper dooper ultra cool bracket thingee posted here???

Oh,yeah,the Vols were a shoe in to make the field.A win over Texas,close game
with Memphis,2 wins over Florida, 1st place in the SEC East ,#6 RPI
I really expected a #4 seed,3 at best.

No, I meant pre-season. Of course they were a shoe in after the year they had.

Oh,I would say the prediction would have been not even to make the NIT just like the year before.

ssigman · March 13th, 2006, 01:00 PM

but they have kenny lofton on their team....of course they were gonna make the tourny

Rusty27 · March 13th, 2006, 01:07 PM

Pre-season predictions had Kenny being killed...again.
