Lundardi update: #10 seed vs. UNLV in Kansas City, playing KU in the next round

I thought teams of the same conference can't play until at least the sweet 16? Must not be the case if Lunardi has this.

It probably is the case, and Lunardi is just an idiot.

 

[CysRage]

Also noticed the Big 12 with 10 teams has the same amount of teams making the tournament as the all powerful and mighty Big Ten with 12 teams LMAO!

I would love it so hard if we were in KC.

 

[megamanxzero35]

If we are in KC, I'm going.

I would love it so hard if we were in KC.

If we end up in KC it will be Hilton South without a doubt. A Cardinal and Gold invasion of EPIC proportions.

They can't, unless there are more than 8 teams in the field from the same conference.

Not in love with the match-ups, good thing this is just a projection. I say we keep climbing to a 7 seed!

That's in response to CysRage Q: I thought teams of the same conference can't play until at least the sweet 16?

I know there's an exception even if it's fewer than 8 teams — vaguely defined as "if it's unavoidable." But I don't know all the secondary bracketing procedures.

If it was indirect fallout from other leagues having 8 or more bids, I could understand it — but it's 7-6-6-5 etc., hardly unusual.

He does have three of the four 10 seeds from the Big 12 — but he could've easily swapped Colorado and Iowa State, problem solved.

Maybe he just goofed on a detail.

Can anyone shed light on this?

That was his bracket before our beat down of OU... and it's Jerry Palm. The same guy that didn't have us in the tourney last year up until the final week.

SI has us as a 7 seed, highest I've seen us yet.

Updated BPI

 

[cyclones500]

At least Lunardi finally purged Virginia from his bubble list.

 

[CYUL8R]

Kansas City would be FRICKING AMAZING. Much better than playing Louisville in Lexington or Mich State in Auburn Hills. Of course, it's ISU...we can't be that lucky, can we?

KSU is a 5 seed. It would be nice to beat them a second time.

 

[CycloneErik]

Being in Kansas City would actually pull me off my couch. I don't see how I could miss that.
