Seeing St Johns as the final team on the 5 seed line got me thinking... I can easily see them losing to a 12 seed first round, but can also see them taking down a 1 seed in the Sweet 16. Obviously I hope it is the latter, I think some of the reason I can see them losing round 1 as a 5 seed is just recency bias from their poor performance in last year's tourney.

I wonder if UConn loses to St John's tomorrow if that eliminates any shot of them passing Duke for the DC regional #1 seed. Got only 2 Q2 games left which won't move the needle much for them.

pretty good night for Seton Hall last night. A win over UConn may well put them in the field....

Once we lost to Creighton and Duke beat Michigan, I thought there was absolutely no shot if us taking the #1 in the East. Unless Duke utterly collapses, which I don't see happening.

I heard so many good things about Cam Boozer while he was in high school and how he "just wins everything." I can't stand Duke and don't want them to win another natty, but I have to admit they are one of the favorites, if not the favorite to win it all right now.

Updated with the Wednesday games. Some real carnage right around the cutline.

Good news for St John's with both BYU and Wisconsin losing. Think should avoid falling too far after last night. Have to start to consider if Nova beats them this weekend, do we see Nova pass St John's?
