Selection Sunday

[Austiger]

The day of reckoning is finally upon us. Post your tournament projections here and we'll see who is the most accurate bracketologist. Post your seedings or just who's in and who's out.

Mine came down to Purdue and Arkansas, with Purdue's road record keeping them out. If NC State wins, they take Arky's spot. If they both win, Cuse is out.

Note on mine: if any of the 1 seeds lose today, they could drop down a spot. Also, if Texas wins they will probably take the Saluki's 3 seed.

Old Dominion is my last team in. The RPI and Conference record of 16-4, I think gets them in over Illinois and Stanford. If NCSU wins today I think ODU's out.

Last four in:
Old Dominion, Arkansas, Drexel, Kansas State
Last four out:
Stanford, Illinois, Air Force, West Virginia

I watch Selection Sunday every year. This is the first year I have ever watched not knowing if my team (Purdue) will get in or not. You always feel for those teams they show that never see their name on the board, but I really couldn't relate until now. It really is agonizing.

Most of my friends are in a state of denial thinking it is clear we are in. I think it is more like 60%, and I wouldn't be surprised either way. I just want to get it over with. I can't speculate without extreme bias, so I will not bother to pick my teams. Austiger, I hope you are wrong, or Arkansas gets beaten down today, and you change your mind for that last spot [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].
