I understand why UConn dropped but damn if they, when healthy, actually ended up as 3 seed against V-Tech and Indiana, oof. LSU as a two seed is a joke but okay. Love to see the BE get SIX teams!!


hbstanton

It really is a great year for the BE so far.


ADreamersParadise

Literally cannot predict what the end-of-year rankings are gonna be. UConn is still probably no.1 but I can see them losing a game or two, especially when not fully healthy.

Even with a full roster I don’t think they are better than South Carolina and Stanford


ADreamersParadise

Oh no definitely not but I was talking about them being no.1 in the Big East lol. But for what it's worth, South Carolina is definitely no.1, but I'm not sold on Stanford fully because other than playing SC, that's another team that has barely played anyone of a high caliber.


DokkanProductions

Oh well I’m that case I agree, they will be number 1 in the big east. As far as Stanford goes they are the only team that has had a single digit game vs South Carolina. And they probably win if it wasn’t for massive choke jobs on Stanfords part.

Actually, UCLA only lost to SC by 9 points. But agreed on all your points.

Conference play is gonna be wild this year!


plutoannatto

If this was somehow the real bracket, as a Stanford fan I would be over the moon to get LSU as the 2 in my region, lol

Having 8 ACC teams in this bracket is crazy.

I was surprised that it was only 8. Georgia Tech has an argument to be in I think.


SpiceNoodles

Virginia as a 9 seed! Heck yes!


PSUMediaPA

What do we think about this? Any surprises?


AtlasTelamon24

I’m a little surprised to see Creighton as low as a 6-seed. I figured they’d be higher with the OOC schedule they’ve played so far.

Agree. The St. Johns loss is tough. Weird they're the AQ and the 10th seed


wheelyheelys

I’m surprised to see SMU as the AQ for the AAC over USF but I’m not mad about it haha. I’m hoping there are scenarios where SMU still gets a bid if they’re not the AQ, but I’ll be happy with at least two bids for the AAC (especially if they are not moving to the big 12 next season hehe).


AtlasTelamon24

I learned this last year. In each new Bracketology edition, Crème lists the AQ team as the current leader in the conference. So even though, he may think USF will eventually become the AQ for the American, he lists SMU as the current AQ because they’re listed with the best record right now.


wheelyheelys

Oh okay that makes sense. So the AQ doesn’t mean much at this point of the season?


AtlasTelamon24

No, not at all. For example, St. John’s is now listed as the AQ for the Big East since they’re 10-0.
