Its early, but it currently has us at a 3. Our path would be Pacific/Baylor/Georgetown/Oklahoma. Sign me up for that path please. |

Baylor would be a tougher out this year. I don't even want to think about that team in 2 or 3 years. |

They are definitely a team on the rise. They've been recruiting well and are ultra-athletic. Their '09 class has a top 40 kid right now, and are in good position with the #1 prospect in the country, John Wall. Him in that system would be downright scary. They also are in with another top 25 prospect. They already have the number 1 prospect in Texas locked up for 2010, 5 star Perry Jones. They are a sleeping giant. If they ever learn to play defense, they'll be a tournament team year in and year out. |

BTFU, I agree we can beat OK in the rematch ut Gtown went down to Davidson last year and will be hungry thiis year. Fuck it almost all sweet 16 games are tough so if we play Gtown in the sweet 16 it will be a good thing |

Georgetown is definitely good. But here are the other roads for a 3 seed: East Tenn St/Memphis/Syracuse/UNC Vermont/Nova/Duke/UCONN Cornell/Arizona St./Gonzaga/Pitt I'd take the road we'd potentially have. The Nova/Duke/UCONN road is a death march. Memphis and UNC bracket is terrifying. Gonzaga and Pitt back to back woud be near impossible. I like a G'Town matchup. They don' score a whole lot, and I think our 3 point shooting could put a lot of pressure on them. |

I like our road because we have proven ourselves against two of the teams in the past 9 months, and our first round game would be a cupcake. Baylor, who is improved, was a team that we just pounded last year, and even if they are better, I think we are better also. Although the Griffins abused us, we lost in OT. That was a very winnable game and Oklahoma isn't a team I have my doubts about competing against. Georgetown is good, but not scary good. Pitt frightens me a little bit. |
