That's ridiculous. Assuming we beat ku & UT, a distinct probability considering we have UT at home and we have already beaten ku, and then we win or make the finals of the Big 12 tourney, I foresee a 4 seed.
These projections don't take into account what they think is going to happen. It's just as it is right now. I still think 8 is too low, but you have to look at it like the selection show is happening today.
Why would you want that bracket. USC is a tough 9, Tennessee is the overall #1 seed, then you get UConn who's been playing very well. Once you get to the EE game, it's better, but that is a pretty healthy half of a bracket, it seems to me.
