Posted January 22, 200620 yr comment_5155 GOODBYE #1 Duke GOODBYE #2 Florida ALl three remaining unbeaten teams L-O-S-T today. One game left. If #3 UCONN can be upset by Louisville, we ahve a very good chance at being #1 on the next poll. Only way we wouldnt is if they keep Duke #1 despite a loss!
January 22, 200620 yr Author comment_5157 Welp, Louisville didnt wanna cooperate. Theyw ere winning late then gave up and got blown out. So UCONN will be #1 then it is up in the air whether we will have duke #2 or memphis #2.
January 22, 200620 yr comment_5158 Im pretty sure Duke will be #2 considering we have 1 loss vs Memphis' 2. Also because we beat Memphis.
January 22, 200620 yr Author comment_5161 That does make sense, but in actuality we should be #2. Those thigns dont matter as much as one would think. What matters is Duke lost to an unranked team and we lost to 2 top 5 teams and also I think we may have taken over the #1 RPI now. Not sure. Actually it looks like Duke may still have the #1 RPI. But either way, they lost to an unranked team, which is not a good thing.
January 22, 200620 yr Author comment_5166 Yes it does. A #1 seeed is a prestige thing and it virtually guarantees you an easy ride to sweet 16. And usually 2 or 3 of them make the final 4.
