Ok, so we now know the seeding process for the women's tournament
is a joke.

Yet again, Tennesee is over-rated. I hope they lose in the first round.

Yeah, and the men's is a joke alos--Kentucky is the #1 overall?? Give me a friggin break.

2. I think the women's seeding is messed up
There are some teams who are like 22-6 who are like an 8 or 9 seed. WTF?

I can go with Kentucky men as the #1overall

3. Ok, KY beats a stuggling Fla team for their win, at the time KY is
ranked number 8 nationally. Stanford is 2 and wins their conference. UCONN--ranked 9--beats a higher ranked team--Pitt, number 6--to win their tournament.

Makes no sense to me.

4. As I look at it that way
you have a point. I think Pitt deserved to be a 2.
But excluding St. Joes the other top seeds are valid to me. it could go either way. What are your top four choices.

6. I really don't have a problem with KY as a #1 seed, but as the #1 seed
overall--that's a joke.

My top four are Stanford, Duke, KY and UCONN.

And yes, Pitt should be higher.

9. I think Duke, Kentucky, UConn
are about even for the #1 overall. I'm not really big on Stanford. The Pac-10 is real down and they didn't have a real good non-league slate. To me there about even with St. Joes. but I think the Cardinal will advance farther than the Hawks

11. I see Stanford making it to their regional final, then losing to UCONN,
I think they're better than St. Joe's, but I agree that the Pac 10 isn't so hot anymore.

praying TENN loses in the first round!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

8. Yeah that is puzzling why they would do that
I think a 1-2 conference punch like that should be in different brackets
