Blind seeding
« on: March 04, 2013, 10:13:38 AM »
With Selection Sunday less than 2 weeks away, I put together this chart of 26 teams likely to be at least 7 seeds according to various bracketologists out there (right now). Choosing 26 was simply based on letters in the alphabet. Teams in bold are currently leading their conference. kp = kenpom. Everything else should be self explanatory.

Your task is to give your 1 though 4 seeds including your overall #1.

How we would do it or how the committee would?

How the committee would makes more sense (granted, you have limited information), but however you want is fine too.

This is fun.  Is there a way you could post a downloadable spread sheet of your table?

#1 overall is so mumped its hard to put into text. I would say the zags at this point, they win and dont get caught in the traps. duke is close but they are so up and down its hard to even put them as a 1 sometimes

if i was seeding it would be

1-gonzaga
2-duke
3-michigan
4-kansas

2-1-indiana
2-2-miami
2-3-georgetown
2-4-kansas state

3-1 -louisville
3-2-florida
3-3 -mich st
3-4- new mexico

4-1 oklahoma state
4-2- syracuse
4-3-marquette
4-4-ohio state

* I changed this 15 times and whats great about this year is I could see all 15 times being close

I judge a lot on 1-50 record and anything outside of that is a bad loss

Overal #1 is B.
1: HCBE
2: ADJG

#1 should be duke w/ ryan kelly - best team in the country


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

New warning: Don't get in a fight with someone who doesn't even need to bother to buy ink.

It's funny since only one team has a loss to a 200+ team.

#1 overall - H (not even sure it's close)

other 3 - I, C, B

I would have had oklahoma state above some of the 7 loss teams, I didn't look that far down the list.

#1 seed- T

Everyone else shouldn't bother to show up for the tourney.
I think what my friend Mitch is trying to say is that true love is blind.
