maggsmaggs Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 The only number team I was sure was going to kill us (ILL) was UCONN and look who we get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a joke, and it goes FAR BEYOND just Illinois. I second that. These brackets are f***in horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan4life_2007 Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Am I missing something? Why did Tennessee get a 2 seed? What's their logic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palehosefan Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Am I missing something? Why did Tennessee get a 2 seed? What's their logic? No logic, both Illinois and UNC should have been ranked ahead of them, how sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aboz56 Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 ILL did get screwed, but they'll be fine IMO. Should be in the Sweet 16 and then anything can happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonkeyKongerko Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Yeah, the seedings might suck but what's the difference if we lose to UConn in the Sweet 16 or in the Elite 8? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan101 Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 I like the Air Force matchup, and Washington plays no defense and relies on all offense. So despite the screw job, I like the matchups in the first 2 rounds. But then UConn...and bye bye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might play out that way, but that is the same kind of thought I had in 2002 with IU staring at Duke. I'm glad I was wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 I know Illinois fans are pissed about the seeding BUT I believe the winner of them and Uconn gets to the final four, actually there is no doubt in my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
