The Important Questions

CHN experts answer the important questions that are on your mind this week.  We know you're not thinking about your wife, or your job, or even your kids this week.  No, this week is devoted to college basketball, and only college basketball.

 

Question #4:  What teams are seeded too low?


Why does the committee always favor the power conferences? Who knows, maybe it's all the cash they have.  Just an idea..

 

 

Brad Best - San Diego State

Louisville should have been three and they got a bad draw to boot.

 

Kristi Chartrand - Kansas

No surprise here. I think Louisville should’ve at least been a 3. 29-4??? They win their conference tourney??? I mean they played their way to that seeding despite a down year for Conference USA. All in all I think the committee did an excellent job seeding.

 

Richard "The Professor" Cheeks - Kentucky Wildcats

Louisville.  As I described above, Louisville is a legitimate Final Four contender, and to give them a #4 seed with only 4 losses, one of which to Kentucky is too low.  At least a #3, and probably a #2.

 

Dan Curry - DCI National Ranking

Old Dominion dominated a better-than-average conference and should have been seeded higher than a 12.

 

Sydney Hunte - MAAC

Kentucky

 

Bill "Cigarboy" Kintner - College Basketball Interviews

Louisville.  Just a few days ago U of L was being mentioned as a possible one seed.  I think a three was more appropriate.  They have played pretty good ball during Feb.

 

Mark Marra - CCSU Blue Devils

Tournament Ads

 

Florida or Louisville. Both got shafted, especially Florida with their potential match ups
 

Ed Matisik - NCAA Legal Issues

George Washington.  I probably would have put around them around #8 or #9.  They're a very athletic team and Georgia Tech will have their hands full.  (Full disclosure:  I went to med school at GW, so there's more than a little person fondness for the Colonials here.)

 

David Mihm - Bracketology.com

Louisville, no question.

 

Adam Stanco - National Commentary

Louisville.  The Cardinal blowout loss to Memphis on February 9th must have resonated in the minds of the Tournament Committee. Louisville has won nine in a row since that game and is playing as well as any team in the nation.

 

Jon Teitel - Ivy League

George Washington. The Colonials finished 22-7 after starting the season 11-2 (including a win over Michigan State) and finishing the season 10-2 (including the Atlantic 10 Tournament), yet were “rewarded” with a double-digit seed from the selection committee. 

 

Dan Vance - Indiana Schools

Syracuse. Everyone knows that The Orange had their fair share of troubles this year. But the fact of the matter is that they deserved better than a 4 seed. Most teams would be thankful for that spot, but Jim Boeheim should be irate. The 'Cuse should be number two.

 

Joel Welser - Monday Mailbag

UCLA.  I'm surprised that they ended up on the same line as the last two in (UNI and UAB).

Question #4: What teams are seeded too low?

Question #5: What will the big 1st round upsets be?
