YES!

Villanova is now A++ tier (will need to make final four again in 2019 to keep status)
Michigan is now A+ tier (guaranteed to keep status until 2023 tournament)
Kansas State is now A tier (guaranteed to keep status until 2020 tournament)

looks like most champions played a tougher opponent in the elite 8 than they did in the final four, before facing a very high quality opponent in the champ game.

ADVANTAGE: MICHIGAN

Can I get a Blue Bloods update?  Is Nova considered one now after winning the Natty 2 of the last 3 years?  TIA

they are firmly in the A++ tier, with three final fours in the last decade. however their first one was in 2009 so they'll need to make the final 4 again next year to maintain A++ status.

sidenote: according to kenpom, 2018 villanova was the highest rated champion since 2008 kansas

Is there a limit to Blue Blood members?  Can we have more than just 5 for example?

I once blew clove smoke in a guy's face that cut in front of me in the line to KJ's.

 :Take the Bait:USA Today has us as a #4 in the DC region.   KU is a #4 if of course the KC region.

if we win the big 12 tournament (which should be incredibly easy considering how shitty the rest of the conference is), we will definitely get the midwest 3 seed

There's going to be a lot of crying on Sunday when KU gets a 4 or 5 seed. The committee works much harder than these dudes working on brackets, watching formulas 5x more than games. They're not giving a top 4 seed to a program incapable of winning away from home. That team is much different than the one that essentially fooled the computers in November.

So, assuming we are a 4 right now and flood Aggie is a 7, does losing tomorrow bump is down to a 5?  Would the committee use this game as a litmus test for how we look without dean (even tho we haven’t officially ruled him out)?

It's really almost unbelievable that we are now in the middle of the pack in the big 12
