***Official "what seed will the Tigers receive tomorrow?" poll***
I realize mempho_to_diego's lengthy thread on this subject already exists, but why not a poll to see how Tigers fans believe the seeding will go down.
Vote for the seed you believe the Tigers will receive from the Selection Committee tomorrow, not the seed you believe they deserve. The people that choose the correct seed will win nothing, but they will be able to claim that they know what they are talking about.
Here is Memphis' 2012-13 resume:

At a #20 Rank, and #13 RPI, I think we DESERVE a #5, but acquiesce to a #7.

That's the one I am hoping for. 6 seed = very good chance at the Sweet 16.

A 6 seed in Austin for Memphis would be awesome. It would be like 1995 all over again.

I think it will most likely be a 7. I am holding out hope for a 6. Also wouldn't be shocked if we get shafted with an 8. A 9 or below would be the biggest slap in the face in the history of seeding teams.

Not a bracketologist, don't know how the other teams stack up. Just a gut feeling.

RE: **Official "what seed will the Tigers receive tomorrow?" poll
I just don't see how we can win 30 games and get a 7 seed. Especially with how teams are losing to inferior opponents this year it seems that we should be rewarded at least a 6.

^ I'm with you on this. Write it down, take a picture or whatever!! Memphis will be a 5 seed, top 20 divided 4 ways, really we dont want this. If the committe really likes us though, we get the 6 seed in a close location, which is what I prefer. The Selection Committe is alot smarter than the bracketology experts and they'll show it tomorrow.
