OU and Ariz State need to be replaced by Okl St and ND.
yes on Ok State, but no on Notre Dame unless they win today. They got a nice, but very lucky win vs Va. Tech yesterday (banked in 3pt shot by Bonzi), but their resume is still lacking even when they had Bonzi healthy (losses to Ball St and Indiana).
The committee has a lot of problems to deal with this year. How do you seed Missouri? Do you project how good Notre Dame may be vs. their record with and without Bonzi making them not a team that should make it? Can you really put nearly the whole Big 12 in? What about Nebraska who has a resume that should be a lock for a tournament but also has no good wins? Now Kansas has a potentially massive injury too but they are being very quiet about it and they will lower your seed based on injury.
I think they know this as they already claim that seeds 1 and 2 are done. They know they have 3 days worth of work to figure out the rest of the stuff.
Yea definitely some issues for them to deal with. that said, Nebraska doesn't have a good resume, they have a good record. Their resume is actually shit. Only one good win (at home vs Michigan) which they lose credit for by getting run out of MSG by Michigan last week. Nebraska is definitely out.
Don't think Porter will affect Mizzou's seeding. He'll be rusty, don't think the committee will adjust too much for that if at all.
The problem with ND is their record with Bonzi wasn't all that special.
Kansas is saying that their center will be good to go next week. If that's true they should stay on the #1 line no matter what happens this weekend.
The committee will make some things pretty easy when filling out a bracket. No matter who OU and ASU play (if they get it) they will lose so that's at least a couple games that will be easy to pick.
Some massive games today. Alabama, ND, Marquette and Ok State may all need to win today.
Glad I'm still off work today, today is quite possibly the best college basketball day of the year, even better than next week based on the amount of marquee matchups.
Really looking forward to seeing Porter play this afternoon.
