If you group this week's AP to 16 teams into 4 pods, who wins in each pod? Do any of the teams dominate the group? Do any teams get run out of the gym by the other 3 teams?

AP Top 16 Pods. Who's dominant, who's a fraud?
- Thread starter jhoosh43
- Start date
Top 3 are scary good. South Carolina just a bit behind. If the top seeds make the Final Four it will be fun. I hope that Hawkeyes can regroup and make the sweet 16.
Right now based on the bracket. If there are no upsets they would play Vermont in the 1st round, Oregon in the 2nd Round, Minnesota in the Sweet 16 and South Carolina in the Elite 8.
I think ole charlie boy forgot Oregon/Iowa are in the same conference. Unless it's impossible I don't think 2 teams from the same conference would meet before the sweet 16.
And he has us playing Western Illinois in the first game who we already beat. I don't think rematches occur that early.
I thought there was a rule that states if they only played once in the season, they could play in the second round. I could be way off though or maybe that is the men.
You could be right, actually I think there's a provision that they may play second round if "it is impossible to avoid." However simply shuffling one 7 seed in the espn bracket doesn't seem impossible to me. But if TV ratings are more important then all rules/provisions come a distant second.
Yeah, might want to change your mindset on that one if it truly bothers you that much.
Maybe I'm reading your comment incorrectly but the AI overview also agrees that dominant is correct, not dominate. The initial post title used dominate but it was edited.
Yeah I edited the typo. The discussion seems meaningless since I meant to type dominant in the first place, despite what an AI says is correct or not.
