Selection Sunday

How about Georgetown getting a #3 seed? Yes they made it to the final of the Big East Tournament, but they were ranked 22nd, and were tied for 7th in their conference (and got the 8th seed!).

I doubt any team in history has been an 8th seed in their conference tournament, and yet gotten a #3 seed in the NCAA Tournament!

Yeah but DC, "teams get bids and proper seeding, not conferences"! ;)
 
Florida a 10?

Butler vs. UTEP???? There's your 12/5 upset folks.

Looks bad now for Va. Tech, Illinois, Miss. St., and Utah St. There's only room for 1 of those 4.

Well on ESPN earlier they were talking about them being a 2-seed!:-o At least they didn't get that, but I agree majors are getting too high of seeds, and mid-majors way too low of seeds it seems.

Except for Butler and UTEP. Those two teams got accurate seeding IMO. But Gonzaga just one seed higher than UNI, who was way underseeded themselves? Come on! Look who Gonzaga played this year!

Yes those 2 are correct, noth BYU a 7?? UNI of 9??? Gonzaga an 8???? I'm probably forgetting some too, but come on. Florida is a 10 too, give me a break.

Lol, I don't think there is enough ?'s there.

Now Temple is only a 5, and Marquette is a 6? Marquette has some bad losses, and didn't have a whole lot of great wins. Temple should have been a 3 or 4 IMO. NM got a 3 though, that's good.
 
I don't agree with Butlers, UNLV's, Vanderbilts, Floridas, Georgetowns, or BYU's seed. Butler too low for being one of the top 15 teams in the country, they should have had a 3 or 4 seed, Vanderbilt should have been a 5, Florida got a 10 just because they are BCS, and really should have gotten a 12 or so, they were on the bubble. Georgetown should have been a 4 or 5. BYU should have been a little lower.
 
Something has to be done about the seeding process.

It's a joke so far. I'm not a Steve Alford fan, but they deserved the 3 seed they got. Temple, Butler and UTEP did well too. UNI and especially Gonzaga got hosed though.

And more importantly, the overseeding of some of these middling BCS teams baffles me.
