Three Big East teams get #1 seeds, Louisville as the #1 overall (midwest), Pitt in the east, and UConn out west. UNC has the other.
Thoughts?
It is awesome to be part of the Big East conference is my immediate thought. Wow. Three number 1's!
Looks like we're heading towards the 2 side of the bracket. We may avoid the 8 out of procedural reasons (only 1 seed we could face in round 2 is UNC).
Question is, if Memphis didn't get the 4th #1, where exactly did the committee have them on the S-Curve?
It's what I expected, I wouldn't want to be in the bracket where Memphis is the #2 seed.
arizona made it. a bit of surprise there.
Please, pleae please...wanted MSU.
I really thought MU was going to wind up as either a 7 seed or 6 seed in Minneapolis opposite Mich St or Kansas.
I really wanted that 6 seed that WV is currently holding.
Interesting - no MU in midwest
If we're a 7, you can be sure it'll be opposite Oklahoma.
Utah a 5? That can't help us.
+1 to the KU thing. I really thought we were getting a Midwest draw. Now, I have no clue.
Wow if BC gets a 7 we should get a 5 but since were marquette well probally wind up same as them
Maybe a 6 somewhere

I dunno, I never thought they wouldn't get a better seed than MU.
Hope for 6 seed in the West as the last 6 seed
UConn has a cakewalk to the Sweet 16.
I like it.
Tough match up for MU.
Boise and blue turf. Utah State close to Boise. But love the #6.
Hell yes I love the bracket we got. Utah State baby
First time in a real long time MU will open the tourney on a Friday.
I'm okay with this. Utah State, Missouri in the first weekend. Not happy with getting shipped out west, but happy with a 6 seed.
I like playing Mizzou in the 2nd round. Concerned about Utah ST. Don't know anything about them, but I can't imagine it'll be a cakewalk.
NCAA was fair to us - now its time to play!!!!
I like it... a lot. and MU vs MU game?
I see (am hoping) for a lot of upsets in the Midwest. Come on North Dakota State?
Love it and I think Memphis is the team to beat
Drat. It'll basically be a home game for Utah State, which is a pretty good team. Don't like the location at all. Lower seed has the geographic advantage. Isn't the committee getting sick of sending MU out west already?
Utah State was 30-4, so they can't be that bad. Someone I presume will do a deep analysis on their schedule.
Think the committee did us great with a 6, whew.....
At least we know the game will more then likely be on after we have gotten home from work. Wisconsin and Marquette Both out in Boise Cheeseheads will be abound.
Wisconsin in by the skin of their teeth.
What is Wisconsin doing in there? Are they serious?
Norm, a likely late Friday night game...Could be trouble
that is such crap. the badgers don't deserve to be there. Un-fing-believeable
Knight, it also could mean we are enjoying a cold one at Kelly's while its on.
i didn't think you could play the opening rounds at your home court/arena....
... so how did villanova get seeded in philly? is temple or st. joes or something considered the hosts? but it's going to be the same arena, so how did that happen
The Big 10 is gonna get bounced out...purdue is in; but ill, mich, penn st., nw all still out there...with 1 spot available
