Conference Tourney seeding: what's left.

Postby sadderbudweiser » Sat Feb 15, 2014 9:18 am

I was looking at the top five teams records and remaining schedules. I kinda like what I see.

Cincy looks pretty solid at 11-1 with three reaming against other top fives: Lou and Mem at home and @ UCONN. even if they drop all three and win the easier games they would finish with four losses. UCONN already has four, Mem and SMU have 3.

Although Louisville (9-2) only has two losses they also have the toughest remaining: @Cin, Mem and SMU and home vs UCONN.

Memphis at 8-3 has home vs Lou& SMU and road vs UCONN, Cin. Interesting and good for us is that they are 0-2 at home so far within this group. They've lost at home to Cin and UCONN.

UCONN at 7-4 has home court with Mem, SMU and Cin. They finish at Lou.


For starters, we only have three games left within this top tier. Lou, Mem and UCONN have four.

A two or three seed is a great goal to play towards.

I'm not worried about seed. The goal is to avoid facing Memphis in a de facto home game for them.

Well, actually SMU staying in top 3 is also key, as not only do you avoid Memphis "road game" in a quarterfinal 4-5 seed matchup, SMU would avoid any other top teams in quarter.
