that would be a fun one to watch.. but i still think UNC would win by 10+

However, i don't know when UCONN plays. I don't think Memphis deserves to be number 4 , i mean last week the beat Southern Methodist.

Memphis didn't deserve a number one seed last year either. They had a great team but they're resume for the tournament wasn't impressive enough to warrant a one seed. They play in a considerably weak conference, don't play a very impressive non-conference schedule and outside of Dozier and Tyreke Evans I don't see much to take them deep in the tournament like last year. If UNC hadn't messed up this weekend against Maryland they'd have a legit argument to take back the No. 1 ranking. Uconn may get it back now with the 1 and 2 ranked teams falling in consecutive nights.

G-town, Syracuse, Xavier, Tennessee, Gonzaga. Gtown and Tenn had pathetic seasons but were supposed to be top 20 teams all year when they scheduled them. Xavier's a top 20 team right now. syracuse is a scary team. And gonzaga is a legit team. Sorry they didnt schedule UNC, OKlahoma, and UConn but thats a fairly decent non-con schedule.
Next your gonna say Tom Izzo never schedules tough non-con games i suppose?

hoe did tennessee deserve a 1? sure its better then C-USA, but the SEC is the worst BCS conference in the country. I think Memphis proved they deserved the 1 by their dominance from the Sweet16 to the Final Four and Tennessee showed they didnt with a 20 point lost in the Sweet 16
why is the conference they are in always the only arguement against them? it would be a legit one if they won by an average of 4-5 points but when they blow out team after team i think it puts it ro rest because they do to those teams what power teams should.
