Kansas...no Conference Championship...no Conference Tourney Title...projected as a 4 seed. Excellent.

Are we even sure we are in? With that late season collapse do we even deserve to be in?

I think whether we are a 5 or a 6 could fall to how they need to balance the brackets to avoid match ups, etc.

The only reason they are still in consideration for a 4 seed is the fact that they didn't lose at the Phog . . . an irrelevant concept in the NCAA tournament.

One of the historically best predictors has us #6 in Tulsa!

Agree with that. I think if ISU had played to their full potential that they would’ve won the conference pretty easily. ISU would’ve been a 2 seed with more consistency, so I’m excited to see if they can keep playing like they did this week because we are in for a fun ride if that’s the case.
I don't think Houston in the second round is a very good match up. Without the late second shot by Michigan last year, they could've been a final four team and they are better this year. 2 big guys on the interior scare me.
Seriously, is there a better sports experience than the Dance? Maybe for some the World Cup, but there have been some Dud Superbowls. Over the course of three weeks, nothing compares to the Dance - and Cinderella is gonna wear "Maroon & Gold"

I guess the positive with Houston is you know that your loss will eventually be vacated with Sampson down there.
You guys are bringing back a lot of nostalgia with the NCAA Hoops talk. My team was A&M Corpus Christi. If they ever bring back NCAA basketball/football it would be terrible for my well being
Got updated this morning and now has us a 4 in Hartford.

Still has us as a 6. Hope we can get a 5, but glad we played our way off the 7 line.

None of the games are easy...they are all hard...but this tourney is 90% match ups and 10% luck..
New Mexico State scares me in that they have never won a ncaa game..ever. Bound to happen at some point.
Murray state I’d take in heart beat...they have one great player and rest are meh.
Oregon also a possibility...idk man they destroyed Washington and have several atheltic PFs..
St. mary’s? They just beat a potential 1 seed...and fairly easily.
Now if we somehow land a 4 seed I’ll feel a bit better...huge gap in talent from 13 seeds and 11-12 seeds..

Utah State is another one I wouldn't want.
Regardless, we can't control who we play. Just have to be ready to go. This team will be going into the dance with a ton of confidence, which is fantastic considering where they were a couple weeks ago.
my unpopular opinion - unless you're a 1-3 seed, every 1st rd match up is tough.
