        Just goes to show that beating UConn on the road doesn't move the needle anymore.

              • I would be okay with that region, weakest 1 and 2's in the field imo...

                • Staggering to think that at this time last season, we were #130ish in KenPom and just hoping we'd be able to make it to the NIT. Insane.

As balanced as all the teams are, I'm probably more anxious about matchups than actual seeding. This could be the year a 1 seed loses to a 16 (again) - maybe even two #1 seeds could get burned.
                    This is absolute, unmitigated, unintelligent mess... Predicting a #1 to lose to a #16 might be edgy or hip but when you further it to 2 #1 seeds losing in a single year you sound like a paste eater!!!

                      Bzzzzzzzzzz! Wrong. I'm entitled to my opinion.
                      Of probable #1 seeds by the end of the season: Duke? KU? Auburn? Ohio State? Kentucky? Baylor? All completely winnable games depending on matchups. Can't see it? I can. Its happened a number of times already this season, and we're barely halfway thru. Don't know about anyone else, but I love a good roller coaster.

                        I think your logic is founded. This has been a wackier year than the normal wacky. Evansville? SFA? 5 #1's before the new year?

                        Obviously it's not likely to happen but I definitely get your point. Mrs. Levitt is just a drive-by troll that's not even a WSU fan. Not sure what her beef is.

                          Funny thing is, I don't know that it is wacky, anymore. The playing field is really leveling off. Good coaching at some smaller schools, lack of upperclassmen, injuries, and breakout games by unfamiliar faces and matchup problems have made for an interesting dynamic this season. I can easily see someone winning the National Championship by beating someone and all the P5 fans saying "yeah, but they did it in 2020, when NOBODY was good." I think what most of them would mean to say is "consistent", or consistently good.
