OU should have zero shot at a #2 seed.

Recent losses, not reg. season champ, not conf. tournament champ...

2 of their recent losses were without Griffin. Who knows how much weight the committee will give that aspect.

KU will be higher on the committee's board. The way things are playing out KU could be a two, but I still see them as a three. There are too many highly ranked teams who have lost in the post season. I think that scrambles the selection committee's board, but KU as defending champs will get a boost.

I said elsewhere I expect anywhere from 3 to 5.

KU finished the season with losses to Texas Tech and Baylor. You gotta reward a team that is playing that good at the end of the season.

I would have to think that those losses get brushed under the table, but the problem has been that the team's level of play hasn't increased greatly with Griffin's return.

They've just been lackluster of late, which is awful timing. I think they're a 3-4. And if it's a 4, I'd hate to be in that bracket.

I think Blake Griffin being gone is understood by the committee. They may well be a two

You may have noticed several top seeds going down all over the country too. Maybe they'll knock them all down to 3-4-5 seeds so MU can get that 1 seed they so richly deserve.

Usually teams that win move up while teams that lose move down. Pretty complicated.

I don't know what happens to a team that loses to Texas Tech and Baylor :deevee:

Probably not much, unless one overlooks the reg. season championship.

Oh, and there was a win vs. Texas mixed in there, to be fair.

Ah, an MU fan... probably a grad. It's "that well," but I digress.

Who's undefeated? Tell me! Does every good team need to go 35-0 or they're a failure? We're playing with one junior starter and the rest sophs/freshmen. Watching KU at the start of the season I was hoping we wouldn't be an embarrassment and maybe make the NIT. Yet, here we are.

And a blowout win over Missouri right before TT.

But I'm sure this tune will change if Missouri loses to Baylor tonight.

UNC lost today. Obviosuly they don't deserve the 1 seeds they win still get. Mich St. lost too... and UConn... those teams should all fall a few notches I guess. It's about a whole season more than just lately. Pretty complicated.

Don't forget about Pitt. They lost their first game of the Big East tournament. That definitely cancels out their win over Louisville and their two wins over UCONN.
