Did anyone hear Digger Phelps on the 6pm SportsCenter it was funny

[Alsacs]

He said Villanova is not a 1 seed because they lost to Creighton twice and at ACC school Syracuse. Then he said without Villanova as a 1 seed he would give it one of these five schools Kansas, Wisconsin, Michigan, Duke, or Virginia. I honestly don't get how these analysts can't realize the committee doesn't overact to 2 losses they look at your entire resume.

Right now we have the top ACC resume. MSG will come down to Duke-Syracuse on Saturday IMO. The winner of that game will get the East region.

Everyone get ready, if we get the 1 seed, for most of the conversation on the Selection Show with the committee head to revolve around 'Why did you give Syracuse a 1 seed???????????'

Seth Greenberg just said that Cuse is a one seed if they win out.

Alsacs, did you mean to say that Duke would get the #1 seed if they beat us, or that they would play in the East region? Because I can't imagine how they would get a #1.

Yeah, definitely give it to Kansas...whom Villanova beat straight up.

What happened to

 

[stuckinbig11]

Did he happen to mention the bad losses suffered by Michigan and Wisconsin? Why are they even in the discussion?

 

[SWC75]

Seth Greenberg just said that Cuse is a one seed if they win out.

And Jay Williams would give it to Kansas. Sure they have 8 losses but they've played more top 50 teams than anybody else.

Oh, they need to beat more of them?!?

 

[rrlbees]

With the Nova loss, SU, Duke or UVA gets the 1 in the East if they win the ACCT. If a UNC were to win it, I can see Michigan or Lville depending on if they win out.

 

[PoppyHart]

I don't really have a problem with Louisville, Michigan, Kansas, or UVA getting preferential treatment if they win their tournaments. Pulling a double is something that shouldn't be ignored.

If Duke got a one even after winning the ACC tournament they may as well skip the regular season because it would mean NOTHING. 7 road/neutral losses and 11-5 against the top 100 compared to 15-2 for us. Take their name off the front of their jersey and replace it with Someone like Nc state and they are a four seed. Only reason people are talking about the potential of Kansas and Duke as ones is because of their name. Do a blind profile comparison and it isn't even close.

 

[DoctorBombay]

As long as we're a top3 seed in the East, we'll be fine.

If they win the ACCT they still have 7 losses while we would have 5. I can see it.

If it happens it would be a travesty. Stay away from the Lunardi coolade bees.

 

[SUintheVille]

Seth Greenberg just said that Cuse is a one seed if they win out.

If SU wins the ACCT, they will be 30-4. It will prove they are back on track and an elite team, and that the mini slump is a distant memory and no longer relevant. In this case, I agree that Cuse should be a #1. If VA wins ACCT, then they get the #1. If Duke wins it, then it's down to either them or Ville if Ville wins AACT. Still see Kansas as a 2, no matter what.

Lunardi is a fool. I am not.

Duke wins the ACCT. MSU wins the B10T, and let's even say UConn wins the AACT. Who gets the 4th #1 seed?

 

[Briancuse]

Why should lville get preferential treatment? Their resume is weak, and if they win their conference tourney, they would have beaten Rutgers and Houston on the way there.

 

[jncuse]

Why are you dismissing Wisconsin?

They are ahead of Duke, Virginia, Michigan and Louisville if they win out.

 

[jncuse]

Does Kansas win the B12? Because in that scenario they are ahead of the ACC Champion Duke.

 

[jncuse]

If they win the ACCT they still have 7 losses while we would have 5. I can see it.

A difference of 2 losses between us and Duke, has been that "toss up" equilibrium point for me since the beginning of February. I think it could go either way in that scenario, but I lean with the committee going to Duke because they took 2 out of 3 from us in that case.

The equalizer to some degree for the 2 losses, is that Duke played 3 elite teams OOC (going 1-2), and Syracuse played 1 elite team. Will the committee punish teams for scheduling more elite games?

 

[SWC75]

Lose to NC State = 3 seed

In between = 2 seed

Win ACCT = 1 seed

 

[Alsacs]

Alsacs, did you mean to say that Duke would get the #1 seed if they beat us, or that they would play in the East region? Because I can't imagine how they would get a #1.

Duke would be the 2 seed in the East if they beat us. I think Wisky, Michigan, Villanova or Kansas would be the 1 seed in the East if Duke beat us.
