Thinking the #1 seeds will be, in order: Kentucky, Syracuse, Michigan State, North Carolina. I have OSU as the top #2 seed, putting them in UNC's bracket. Can't see Akron getting an at-large, especially with St. Bonaventure taking a bubble spot away.

ESPN final projections have Ohio St the #2 in UNC bracket, MSU #1 out west with Kansas as the #2. CBS has the same

CBS has Ohio St gives them a hard bracket, potentially facing UConn, Baylor, UNC, Cuse. ESPN gives them the same, minus UConn

I would've taken XU and ND to both lose in the first round, but now I have to pick one. ND it is

Buckeyes looking GREAT so far, No UConn (Drummond and Lamb), no Duke (Coach K) no Baylor (Lots of Size and athletic abillity) and no Kentucky!

OSU beat Duke by 30 already. Why would they have to fear them?

Why would OSU have had to play UCONN or Duke in a region anyway? Those don't even make sense

Duke is a #2 just like OSU is going to be and UCONN is a freakin 8 seed. They wouldn't play either of those teams anyway

I don't think Akron gets in, but their resume isn't that different from Iona's.

South is the hardest region this year, the East might be the weakest, both Ohio St and Cuse SHOULD get to the EE with ease

They wouldn't have to play Duke anyway. They both have the same seed. How hard is that to understand. And UCONN is a 9

Man, I'm so glad as a North Carolina fan that they aren't in the same region as Syracuse! Yes!

I think OSU is better off as the #2 in the East, rather than being #1 in the West. They are on opposite sides of the Final 4 as Kentucky, and they don't have an overly difficult path to the East final...and Syracuse is very good, but much more beatable for OSU than Kentucky.

Florida State could be a tough matchup for OSU if FSU doesn't crap themselves and forget how to shoot against Cincy.

Anyone else unsure about USF deserving a bid?

If Iona is in, USF definitely deserved to get in.

They should not have been in. This was a year to go with mid-majors. Give me Drexel any day over a mediocre Big East team in a down year

I was thinking Drexel as well, or maybe Oral Roberts?

Agreed, I don't think USF did enough to make it. Having said that, I can't really complain with who was left out.

PAC-12 is to college basketball as the Big East is to college football.

How did UConn and USF get in but Washington, who won the Pac-12, did not? Insane.

I'd say Washington has a huge beef. They won the Pac-12.

If anyone got robbed, it was Drexel. But Washington should be in over USF all day every day as well
