I haven't looked at all of the metrics but I'll be disappointed if Creighton gets a better seed than us...we have a superior strength of schedule, a superior RPI, and we beat them 2 out of 3 this year.

Spot on Yank....Butler's a nice team but the infatuation by the media is a little much.
You want pizzaz? Then Cooley is your man.

I AM Thinking we are going to get a 7-10 seed, I hope we don't have it in Charlotte(#2 UNC) or Nashville(#2 Duke)

Would also want to avoid being 8/9 game with UVa next - really bad match-up. But I guess at this point you can't get picky about seeding.

I think we're the 4th best team in the Big east in terms of resume's. SHU swept us or we would be 3rd best and a 7th seed perhaps.
But I don't care...I was sure there would be no miracle this time with this group and PC71 was right a long long time ago that Cooley would get his 5th. In many ways this one is bigger than the Championship year for this guru emeritus. No way I saw this display of ferocity coming this week. Sure it takes some luck but the other team gets some luck too. We earned this week's success. Cooley is god.

Davidson just stole an "at large" bid from the pool, after taking down Rhody. A10 will now have 3 teams in the Tournament. Syracuse was among the "Last 4 In" earlier today. Perhaps the Orange will be the team bounced from the Tournament by Davidson

I hope it's Oklahoma or Notre Dame that gets bounced...could also be Arizona State...

Good thing we made that run. Looks like we might not have made it. I thought we would be a 7 or 8.
