I never would have pegged Washington as a #1 seed; the PAC-10 actually seems to be getting more respect than due it this year. East coast bas nothing. Interesting that so much weight was put on the conference tournaments throughout the selection process. We've always regarded them as purely mercenary, just out to squeeze a bit more revenue out of the whole student-athlete money machine before the season ends.
With a potential second-round matchup against Duke, Stanford looks to extend its leave-in-the-second-round-or-earlier streak. But after the way the team has adapted to a new coach after starting slow, and kept its performance up after repeated personnel losses, nobody can complain.
On the topic of Stanford, it's funny the women's team didn't pull a #1 seed, but those seem to be bad luck on the farm anyway.
The ESPN guys all think Vermont will upset Syracuse, but they're wrong.
