Florida lost to the #12 team in the SEC within the past two weeks.

Auburn should not have been the #1 overall seed to be quite honest. Lost 3 out of their last 4. They're a 1 seed, no doubt, but Florida is the best team in the country right now. They absolutely dusted all comers in the SECT but the NCAAT Cmte does not care about conference tourneys unless you're a bubble team or steal an AQ. Gotta wonder if the NCAA was being sly about giving Auburn the favorable host site but not really following doctrine on how they placed their seeds out.


The only way we weren’t going to be the number one overall is recency bias.

Florida is playing better ball NOW, but the committee makes a point of it to weigh the entire body of work. No one approaches Auburn in that regard.

All about the body of work. AU has one of the best resumes we have ever seen.

UF is playing the best ball by far but they lost to UGA recently and had a god awful non conference schedule. Can’t reward them for that.

Just like 2019, if AU does make the Final 4 nobody can claim they didn't earn it. Lots of good stuff in the route to get there. Possibly Louisville in Kentucky, mild chance at retribution with Yale, having to get through either Buzz who has Bruce's number or Tre Donaldson leading Michigan. All that before facing the legend Tom Izzo and Michigan State. Personally, I like it as it should keep the team focused.

Where do people get this idea that seeding is like a power ranking? It’s a body of work

Holy shite, curious what jang did to elicit such an emotional outburst? Chex here has objectively one of the most embarrassing histories of anyone on here, you’d expect him to just kind of keep his head down and somehow try to not make things worse for himself. But his hall monitor arse TRACKED SOMEONE!

I'm just glad that there is a chance that Auburn will lose to Yale in the Sweet Sixteen.

Yeah we got to get our AD on the committee. Cakewalks to the E8 in back to back years.


No doubt. Who could beat Yale? You deserved a better draw.

Hopefully not turning my eyes to that until at least the 2nd weekend of the men's tourney.

Good luck to y'all...no slight meant against Auburn's team. I've felt like Florida was going to win the national title for about a month now. Basically only their random times where they couldn't make a FT late in a few games is the only weakness I see with them. When they're locked in, they can't be beat.

I get it man. Chex trolled the bama fanbase so many times it scarred you for life.

Chex had to create a new account named AuburnTigers after Ryan Williams took his soul and painted his fingernails with it.

Owning a message board has lots of advantages.
