they just beat clemson who is ranked on fridayThey should be a 6. But they’ve played one ranked team in the calendar year, and they lost. Flagg didn’t even play, either.
And that’s exactly why I said they should be a six. Great winthey just beat clemson who is ranked on friday
the number one overall seed draws an 8 seed thats ranked in the top 10 in said teams home state. Seems fairThey were off by maybe 1-2 seed lines. Not a big deal.
I think you have a bigger gripe about the location than the team. It will be a home game for Louisville. Lots of my people around town already have ticketsthe number one overall seed draws an 8 seed thats ranked in the top 10 in said teams home state. Seems fair
NET 23Look at their schedule.
3 seed lines to be fair.They were off by maybe 1-2 seed lines. Not a big deal.

What are you worried about? The ACC is garbage this year. Louisville isn't battle tested. Auburn was battle tested every week. They good.the number one overall seed draws an 8 seed thats ranked in the top 10 in said teams home state. Seems fair
Doesn't matter. Look at their metrics.Count the # of sub .500 teams they've played and how many games they lost to teams of any quality.
0-4 vs the SEC, for instance.
ACC as a whole...Yes. But Louisville is pretty good. And AU could have to play them...in Lexington.What are you worried about? The ACC is garbage this year. Louisville isn't battle tested. Auburn was battle tested every week. They good.

If this happened to UK, you dudes would bitch just the same.

Are you manstruating tonight? What's got you so agitated?Realized who you were, after I typed.
So STFU
I'm not...Just couldn't find emoji to go along with my post.Are you manstruating tonight? What's got you so agitated?
Overall records, Borden. Not just in conference. Also, the fact that UK won 8 games against Top 15 teams pretty much screws whatever metrics you're using.Ok
UK won 10 SEC games. 6 of those came vs sub .500 conference teams. Lost to OSU by 20- who finished 10th in B10.
Again, if UK had the metrics UL has, and was an 8 seed, you'd lose your fukin mind
IU got left out so he's supposedly going to white knight U6.Are you manstruating tonight? What's got you so agitated?
Just my opinion, I don’t think there will be hardly any UK fans at Rupp rooting for one team or the other. We got places to be and games to win. And coach Pope is paying for our gasFirst of all, Louisville's offense was absolute doo-doo on Saturday. Duke missed a lot of wide-open shots in the final 10 minutes. Easily could have pushed it to 20+ points. Auburn should be fine.
Being the higher seed (no less the #1 overall seed) and playing in someone else's backyard is annoying. I detested the 2017 tournament where we played USC in Greenville. Felt like 90% of the crowd was against Duke. It didn't help that UNC was also playing at the same site.
I don't think this will be nearly as bad for Auburn, though. Both Louisville AND Tennessee are playing in Lexington. Plenty of Kentucky fans will be there to root against both UL and UT. Auburn's contingency + Kentucky's contingency will make it feel much closer to a neutral court game than a defacto road game, IMO.
UK fans take second mortgages to wherever they are playing. I still dont understand how louisville is an 8 seedFirst of all, Louisville's offense was absolute doo-doo on Saturday. Duke missed a lot of wide-open shots in the final 10 minutes. Easily could have pushed it to 20+ points. Auburn should be fine.

also if Auburn can make it to atlanta we will have a huge favorable crowd there. only 2 hours from campus and auburn has the second most alumni in the atlanta area behind uga.First of all, Louisville's offense was absolute doo-doo on Saturday.

I get Louisville fans feel like they got hosed and they certainly have an argument, I would have put them at a 6, maybe a 7.
They beat 1 ranked team all year (Indiana) and IU didn’t make the field.
Now, they did end up beating a damn good Clemson team in the Yum center, but Clemson was unranked at that time.
By the time they beat Clemson in the ACCT, the brackets were already set, according to the interviews with the chairman of the selection committee.
Also, when you look at the teams on the 5/6/7 lines, does Louisville have a better resume than any of them? It doesn't look like it, again, I would have put them at a 6 or 7, but I can see an argument for an 8.
Yes, this is one heck of an odd year. Extremely good at the top and extremely bad on the bubble.In a typical year, I think Louisville could easily merit a 5 or 6 seed. Something weird happened this year. Bubble teams were atrocious. And the top 8-9 resume were also really, really good. The gap between teams in the 16-30 range on the S-Cruve (Arizona to Gonzaga) is something that may be unprecedented. I don't think I've ever seen that small of a gap between team #16 and team #30 (bottom 4 seed to 2nd best 8 seed).
I pointed this out to some basketball pundits just 6 days ago. The concern was, well 2 of these teams have to be an 8 seed (and so it was with Louisville and Gonzaga). But, I also felt like the margin was so thin that someone could easily drop a seed line or two... or rise a seed line or two.
11 wins on the season vs sub .500 teams might help you understand why.UK fans take second mortgages to wherever they are playing. I still dont understand how louisville is an 8 seed

Lol, I think every team can say if they hit more shots then they would win by more. If Proctor doesn’t have his best shooting game then Louisville wins. Is that how this works?First of all, Louisville's offense was absolute doo-doo on Saturday. Duke missed a lot of wide-open shots in the final 10 minutes. Easily could have pushed it to 20+ points. Auburn should be fine.
