No. 11 NC State is the lowest remaining seed in the tourney. The Wolfpack's coach was feeling the heat entering the ACC tourney, now they are in the Sweet 16.

Three of the top 4 seeds have reached the semifinals of each region.

Auction / OBP.

Would you protect Jazz Chisholm at $28?

Love the potential stats ( 30/30 potential) but he always gets hurt.

Will probably throw him back.

I am shocked by how well NC State has done, i really thought after that 5 games in 5 days to win the ACC tourney they would be exhausted both physically and mentally.

Going back to when the field was expanded to 64 teams in 1985 and taking the total sum of the seeds in the Sweet 16, this year is the 6th lowest total.

Outside 25 on D
Gonzaga 42nd
Creighton 29th
Albama 103rd
Illinois 105th

Houston is top 25 in offense? Efficiency?

While I don't disagree with your point... teams that have won two straight over tournament teams tend to rise in the rankings.

Per Bart, Houston is 12 in adjusted offensive efficiency, and 1 in adjusted defensive efficiency.
OK, yeah, efficiency makes sense. I know when I had looked a couple weeks ago they were 100th and something in points per game.
