Please-please-please let it come true!!!
What makes you think they are not good out of curiosity? One loss? Ranked in the top 15 in both offensive and defensive efficiency? Wins over Iowa, BYU, and a 31 point dismantling of Creighton?Imagine how giddy the 8/9 seeds are going to be if San Diego State plays out...like hitting the lotto...[laughing]
I don’t think anyone has said they’re not good. But, their lack of a quality schedule has to be considered when looking at that gaudy record. Good? Yes. 1 or 2 seed good? I don’t think so.What makes you think they are not good out of curiosity? One loss? Ranked in the top 15 in both offensive and defensive efficiency?

NFW would they put Maryland-Duke together, same bracket, 2-3 seeds, particularly east region. Yes, Maryland is in the B10 now but there would be just enough lingering ACC sentiment to silently agree Duke needs someone much easier to play.Please-please-please let it come true!!!

That is fair. I guess the point I was making is people jump to a conclusion that a team isn't good, or as good as you put it, just because of the conference they play in. In SDSU's case, I think that is a mistake. When given the chance, they have beaten some good teams. And the numbers support they are legit. Same with Dayton. Those 2 teams can play with and beat anyone. Now watch, they'll both lose opening weekend and I'll look like a total dipshit. Again.I don’t think anyone has said they’re not good.

Duke would be the top 3 and have preference in the East, it would be nice for them to fall behind a big east team on whatever seed line they end up so they don’t go East!Please-please-please let it come true!!!

Agree. Tough for traveling fans but easy on the team.I mean, how much of a dream would that bracket be.
Dayton is a big boy, as proven by taking #1 KU to OT. I’ll take a path thru SDSU in a heartbeat.That is fair.
