You seem to be way overvaluing the polls. This isn't college football and the BCS, the polls mean nothing to the selection committee. I do think Memphis is way better than Scott gives them credit for, but being #2 or #3 in the polls by way of other teams losing in much tougher conference tournaments isn't going to give them any more claim to a 1-seed than if they were #8 or #9.
