'nova / duke - jay wright boys send the blue devils home

marquette / md - don't think we will see it

for the #1 overall team in the tournament ths is a terrible draw - coach would much rather have seen gonzaga , xavier , or washington in the sweet 16

is wake really only the 16th best team in the country?


duke a #2 and wake a number #4 - this doesn't add up folks , they tied for 2nd in the acc regular season - they get penalized 2 spots because they lost to MD in the 1st rd of the acc tourney ??? kansas lost to baylor for gosh sakes

louisville got the worst of it hear , this team will be on a mission as they were disrespected by the committee

how is wake not a #3 seed over any of the #3's , doesn't make any sense

it may have been procedural in the case of Wake I.E. swapped positions with say Syracuse/Villanova since the Big East had 3 #1's they couldn't have a #4 in those regions so one of them got swapped up and Wake down... they're the toughest team to figure for me, could be out in the first round or they could go to the Final Four.

to me they are live at 22/1 , they will be fresh , they will not be intimadeted at all by louisville , the score and louisville will have to shoot very well from the 3pt arch to beat them , barring a shock in the opeing 2 rds , this game stands out to me in the sweet 16

as for louisville they finish #1 in the country and get rewarded by having to play in the sweet 16 a team that tied for 2nd in the acc , talk about getting hosed compared to what pitt / u conn got

wake is the toughest matchup for coach against any team in the midwest or west (including u conn) and it's unfair they COULD draw them in the sweet 16
