Syracuse will be evaluated for the NCAA Tournament based on what it will have shown under Jim Boeheim, per the NCAA. #MockSelection

Saddest photo ever. "AL" means you vote team in as at large. "C" - you want them to be so considered #mockselection

Wisconsin will be judged for the NCAA Tournament with Greg Gard similar to the way it would have with Bo Ryan, per the NCAA. #MockSelection


Of course

OU, nova , Iowa and Kansas are right now #1 seeds before the scrubbing process

Oregon, Virginia , Maryland and UNC your next 4 teams. Right now

West Va, Xavier, Miami and Michigan state were #3s. Dayton, Iowa st, Texas, Utah were 4s. Can all change after scrubbing tomorrow

We are finished ranking the top 4 seed lines.No UK.And yes They were on my ballot for the final spot on this line.

Actually I lied. My partner and I had UK on the 5 line. Rounds of voting get confusing

A message to all bubble teams: bad losses are just as pivotal as key wins. DON'T ALLOW IT TO HAPPEN TO YOU! #MockSelection

Another observations from Indianapolis: Round of 32 games will be more competitive than ever in March. Minimal separation. #MockSelection

Teams that entered NCAA's mock bracket with recent strong play: Oregon State (9), Wisconsin (10), Temple (11). #MockSelection

Oklahoma Athletic Director Joe Castiglione, the chair of the Selection Committee, agrees with the widely held opinion that this season, to date, has produced no clear favorite for the NCAA Tournament.

▪  Explaining when two teams from the same conference can play in the NCAA Tournament. If teams played three or more times in the regular season, they cannot play until the region finals. If teams played twice, they cannot play until the Sweet 16. If they played only once, they can play as early as the second round.

▪  Saying how the NCAA Tournament rounds of play will be labeled. The play-in games in Dayton will be called "First Four." The games on Thursday and Friday of the first week will be "first-round games." Games on Saturday and Sunday of the first weekend will be "second-round games."

We never discussed Louisville. But based on the standards of the other teams I think they would have gotten a 4 seed instead of Texas
