Selection Sunday show goes live on CBS at 3:30 MT.

Buffs projected by most bracketologists as a 7 or 8 seed.

Pac-12 expected to receive 7 bids with conventional wisdom on seeding:

Oregon 1-2
Utah 2-4
Cal 4-6
Zona 4-6
CU 7-9
USC 8-11
OSU 9-11

Some big questions on the bubble and what the committee will value today. Is it a big day for the mid-majors with St. Mary's, Valpo, Wichita State, Monmouth and SDSU all waiting anxiously?

Which team will get the rest of the #1 seeds after Kansas?

Where will CU fans be traveling?

Who will win the Allbuffs bracket challenge this year? https://www.allbuffs.com/threads/official-allbuffs-ncaa-bracket-challenge.115289/
 
What the Buffs don't want to see in the draw:

Team that puts a lot of pressure on the guards and backs it up with shot blockers in the paint.

What we want to see is a 3pt shooting team that's not especially bouncy (BYU type squad).
 
I would love to see a post oriented team with a shooting point guard that can't drive especially well.
 
CBS has a live feed to the CU team for instant reaction and probably a Tad interview. Good pub!
 
I hope they didn't put a camera on us thinking we're a bubble team - especially after Sir Charles saying the Pac 12 was an underrated conference.
 
1 East - North Carolina
1 South - Kansas (surprised not Midwest)
1 Midwest - Virginia (wow!)
1 West - Oregon
 
Please, Dance Gods, don't give CU a 7-seed in Michigan State's region.

Committee looks like it's valuing RPI and the Power 5 a lot based on these first selections.

1 Kansas
2 Oregon
3 Virginia
5 North Carolina (4 Villanova, Big East, got jumped)
 
Nervous. I hope Kenny Smith is right and the NCAA has a high value on the Pac.
 
I'm reading it as a good sign that the Committee showed some Pac-12 love with the 1 seeds.
 
8 seed in the South, playing UConn for the right to play Kansas.

Well, on the positive side CU will make a lot of headlines if it gets to the Sweet 16. :eek::D
