What Seed Do We Get?

[Goose]

Just curious. And damn this is fun. Went a little extreme on the range, but wanted to cover my bases.

 

[Buffnik]

11

That's the seed I want. And I want the West Region. Pac-12 Champs deserve to be in the West.

 

[tante]

12 seed in the east region.

 

[CVilleBuff]

I'm going to go with 12, which I think would be a nice situation. Being a 12 seed opens some possibilities to sneak deeper into the tournament than you'd imagine, as 5 sides are often ripe for the picking. An 11 seed would be absolutely ideal. I'd be disappointed with a 13 seed -- a 23 win champion of a power conference (and again, the Pac hatred has gone overboard) deserves better than that. Even still, there are some relatively weak 4 seeds this year so even that wouldn't spell certain doom.

I'm really hoping we can play KSU.

IIRC ... there have been more 12-5 seed upsets over the years than any other in the first round ... too lazy and tired (and ecstatic) to look it up right now. :smile2:

You are correct. 5 seeds are ripe for the picking.

 

[BehindEnemyLines]

11 seed.

 

[Bone Buff]

Heh, I'm gonna go "I don't ****ing care cause we're dancing and they can't take that from us".

 

[ZKobalt]

10 or 11.

 

[SECOBuffsFan]

11 Seed in the West vs. St. Mary's

 

[Buffalo Brad]

I voted 11 but see us anywhere from 11 to 14. It really does not matter because this is going to help launch This program. 24 wins and an NIT semi final last year and now in a supposed rebuilding year we take the PAC and go dancing. All hail Taddy! Roll brother roll!

 

[SkiTownUSA]

voted 11, but I'm now hoping for a 12 in the Midwest bracket. My company has a work function in Portland this week. I'm not supposed to go until later this spring, but maybe I can get it switched (longshot) and get a trip paid for to go see them Buffs play.

 

[CarolinaBuff]

10 seed

When you say this, do you actually mean you want us to be put in the West Region or just sent to one of the sites in the West for the first/second rounds? Because the 2 aren't necessarily the same.

Of course both would be ideal. :smile2:

exactly... I dont like this pod system... way too confusing....

CU v. Temple in Pittsburgh

 

[BehindEnemyLines]

As long as we don't have to face a Tom Izzo coached team in the first round .....

 

[Heywood]

HOLY ****!! I just realized that the west seed is in Portland!! I just got the green light from my wife to go if the buffs end up there!!!!


edit: **** yeah!!! I just got psyched again!!

I mean that I want us in Albuquerque, which I guess means I want a 12 or 13 seed. That would put us in Phoenix if we can get through to the Sweet 16.

You sure about that putting us in Phoenix? Thought they changed it a few years back where the first round sites don't neccessarily match up with the Sweet 16/Elite 8 sites. If you look at ESPN's bracket, Albuquerque is in two different regions.

To answer the seed question I'm expecting a 12 or a 13. The win over Arizona doesn't bump us up enough to jump enough teams that we were behind on the bubble going into yesterday which is what would need to happen to get an 11 seed or better.

Lunardi is one wierd looking dude. Is this all he does? Or does he have a real job?

That was exactly my point.

 

[BehindEnemyLines]

yeah, I was right

He's an administrator at St. Joseph's University in Philly...I believe he's in charge of university marketing and communications or something like that

 

[Buffnik]

Well, I picked an 11 in Albuquerque (even if I was confused on the rest).

I picked Colonel Mustard in the Library with a candlestick. Boy was I wrong!
