MVC - NCAA seeding predictions

by **MVCfans** » March 7th, 2012, 6:17 pm

What are you projections for NCAA seeds?

Wichita State
RPI 15
2-3 vs Top 50
4-0 vs 51-100

Creighton
RPI 20
4-1 vs Top 50
1-2 vs 51-100

I predict WSU is a 5 and Creighton is a 7.

I think Creighton's ceiling is a 5, and the lowest is 7. But I think the Jays will get a 6. I think Wichita could be anywhere from a 4-6, but will get a 5.

Wichita State is a 5 and CU is a 6 in my latest mock bracket but things are still fluid.

I'd be interested to see your mock bracket and I would agree with this above statement as of right now.

Currently I have Wichita as a 5 taking on 12 seed VCU with the winner facing the winner of Baylor/Nevada.

I have CU as a 6 playing UCONN with the winner facing the winner of Michigan/Belmont.

Edit* I have not factored in today's results so I will likely move UCONN to the 10 line. Let's match up CU with BYU then.

I'll guess a 4 and 6. Drake was a 5 in 2008 with a resume that falls between WSU and CU this year...

WSU is incredibly strong in Sagarin and Pomroy

I think they both are a 6, but I am becoming increasingly fearful of a seed drop for matchup and regionality bracketology matrix sake that could put either at a 7, or even far worse, 8. Hoping those are unfounded concerns.

rarely do midmajors get seeded or placed advantageously in the bracket. ending the Valley season a week early hurts seeding IMO, while the Shox & Jays rest, wins by teams ranked below them this week are fresh in minds of the committee.

I also believe ending a week early might hurt the Valley as a whole. IMO, the league becomes an after-thought. I guess it's our best shot at being on television.
