Not surprisingly, we're out. As I suggested in another thread, UCF would be no higher than a 15 seed -- and that's where this guy has them.

Also, he has TCU in as a 9 seed. I think the Frogs deserve it. Makes our win over them look that much better.

Guess we're trading spots with them from last year when we went to the NCAA and they went to the WNIT. Think they won a couple of games in that too.

UCF is a damn good team, and very athletic. They can press all-game long, and if Wiley and Mealing are hitting 3s, they can beat some good teams. They deserve to be better than a 15, and having seen both play, I'd bet on them over TCU. They're a better team, and better coached.

UCF lost very respectably to some very good teams, and that really hurt their non-conference record. They also appear to still be improving. I think having to play a 2 seed will be too much for them, but they could make a real game out of it.

If they get a 12 seed like we did last year, they'll beat someone. They're an amazing bunch of athletes.

I think 14 is realistically the highest they can go. RPI and overall record are both poor.

Presumably the NCAA will recognize that their out of conference schedule was brutal. Yes, the RPI is weak, but they deserve better than a 14.
