Well this certainly changes things

[anomander]

Lunardi seeds the teams? Who knew?

The dude got every single team in the tournament right last year.

Then again i'm sure the guy doesn't have a clue he's just another talking head right

 

[gilardino]

Kansas was picked to be a # 1 seed in the east after cuse loses. Kansas now has 7 losses. In addition. Creighton, Louisville, Michigan state, St. Louis all lost today. Lots of time left.

 

[anomander]

don't think lunardi has them as a 2 yet. They were the last 3 before winning at home while being favored move them up to high 3 or last 2 at most. There is a substantial gap after the top 6 of Florida, Wichita State, Arizona , Syracuse, Kansas and Wisconsin for me

He just had them on Sportscenter a minute ago as a 2

 

[jncuse]

If Lundardi has them as a #2 seed right now behind Cuse and Duke, who else would need to lose?

Cheer for Nebraska at home against Wisconsin on Sunday.

I was thinking they would be up there. They probably have the best non-conference wins, and are on a roll

 

[Briancuse]

On the road dude!!! Where have you been living--in a vacuum?

 

[OrlandoCuse]

I'm still shocked people continue to downgrade UVA because of the way they played in Nov and Dec. It's like going 16-1 in the ACC doesn't matter at all. I really don't see 4 teams better than UVA right now. Totally deserving of a 1 seed. If they win out they will be a one seed without any doubt.

 

[Chris02M]

same with Davidson I don't care how many wins they have in conference they are projected to be in first 4 games that isn't a good win

Big deal, none of those teams are going to be playing in the ncaa tournament, and we beat all three of them as well.

They are a good team, no one is denying them that, but they don't have a one seed resume, and they played a much easier schedule than syracuse, duke, and unc played.

That's how I have my top 8, but flip flopping Nova and UVA.

That's why I think if UVA wins out, they would only need 1 of the top 4 to lose to grab a 1 seed

you don't go from a borderline 3-4 seed to a 1 seed by winning at home against a team you were favored over. Committee takes entire season into account when seeding

 

[HarrisonJBounel]

3 tops

They were ranked 12th before today, which is the equivalent of a 3 seed. With all the upsets today, they will surely be in the top 8 on Monday. That's a #2 seed.

If they are a 3 seed, then we're going to the NIT. Which after today looks about right.

They dropped the last 10 criteria correct?

they would have to beat North Carolina and either duke or us to be considered and I think we would have to lose a game that we shouldn't the rest of the way(GT, @ FSU or quarterfinal acc tourney game)

 

[Madbiker]

Lunardi just tweeted that he's keeping Kansas on the #1 line AFTER their loss to OSU tonight.

polls mean nothing in regards to seeding as seen by Louisville ranked in top 10 but are projected 5 seed

he must think Oklahoma state is better than Virginia even though in the long run it would make no difference being 1 or 2 as long as we are in the east

 

[thebigeast44]

10 top 25 teams lost today. Our seed will ultimately be determined by how well we do, along with other teams results. Still a long way to go until selection Sunday.

I hear what you're saying, and agree that if they win out they probably get the 1 seed - but you can't (nor can the committee) just ignore what happened early in the season.

As of the current standings they would only get a matchup vs Cuse/UNC/Duke in the title game. If they beat us twice it will definitely be interesting.

Lunardi just tweeted that he's keeping Kansas on the #1 line AFTER their loss to OSU tonight.

That's absolutely ridiculous.

Wonder how much they would consider Grant's injury since they factor that into the criteria? Too bad the 20 point loss made it worse then it really was.

Did they drop the last 10 games criteria?
