Well now it's a reality. I still don't understand them as a 7. They could very easily be a 5

Where is this narrative coming from? Metrics say they should be worse than an 8 seed or worse
20-6 power 5 champion that has gone to final 4, elite eight and sweet 16 in past 5 years. It's a brutal draw i said this 2 weeks ago before any brackets were unveiled. Brutal draw
What they have done the past 5 years has nothing to do with this year
So you think the #34 team in the NET rankings and #36 team in KenPom should be a 5 seed?
I agree somewhat but also disagree i think you can gage teams that peak right around March using past teams. Altman tends to have oregon playing their best at end of the year. It's why there's thousand of pages on the fran fade topic. Fair or not Iowa's perception is the opposite of Oregon
I do in this scenario. I believe them and Colorado could easily be flipped. I've seen oregon couple times and i believe they're a top 20-25 team. It's why i described then as a nightmare draw 2 weeks ago
How else do you seed teams? You like at their metrics which includes Q1 wins, bad losses, etc. Colorado is better than Oregon I mean that's not debatable
I disagree split two games and finished behind them in the conference
LOL, Oregon was Pac12 conference champions, they were way under seeded.
Conference championships carries a lot of weight with you I thought? Even if metrics/ratings doing love the team.
A conference championship is a great accomplishment. In terms of seeding metrics are the way to go and that's why the committee uses them
Got it. So you would be against for instance a team that wasn't even in the top 25 to jump into a spot reserved for the 12 best teams?
