...listening to the so called experts. There is so much garbage out there that it is almost impossible to sift through it.
Read through this gem. These two paragraphs appear consecutively in Luke Winn's column. Talk about contradicting yourself. I wonder if anyone reads this s**t before it gets posted.
3. Wisconsin deserves a No. 2 seed over Duke. The Badgers lost -- by a lot -- to the Blue Devils at Cameron in November, but the selection committee simply cannot deny a team that won the Big Ten regular season title and (most likely) the Big Ten tourney a top-two seed. Especially when stacked up against a Duke team that won neither its conference or nor its postseason tourney.
4. If Kansas wins the Big 12 tournament today, I don't think the Jayhawks are a lock for a No. 1 seed. Tennessee, which is No. 1 in the RPI and has non-conference wins over Memphis, Xavier, Gonzaga, West Virginia and Western Kentucky, would still deserve that fourth No. 1 over the Jayhawks, who played a pretty lackluster slate outside of the Big 12.
Wow. To quote "Slap Shot," that's good writing, Dickie.
Wisconsin getting a No. 2 seed when they're clearly the sixth-beat team in the Big East is a travesty.

That's ok, then they become the first team in NCAA history to lose in the first weekend back to back years as a 2 seed.
I say let UW get the last #2 seed. The way the S curve works they would get UNC(assuming they are the #1 overall) in Raleigh!! ;D They should want the top #3 seed.

The top 3 gets the worse 2 and thus also the best 1 meaning UNC.
