Don't want anything to do with that UTA team, Not afraid of WVU at all even though we are not great at handling pressure.

Buffalo pod and then all the way cross country to west regional? Man that's rough placement. Do they know we are AAC champs? Normally a conference champion, even from mid majors, gets placed in their natural region regardless of seed.

Wherever they put us, I'll be there!

Even if I have to hitch a ride on the back of a turnip truck - I'll be there, too!

Lunardi updated his projections again today and we are still a 5 in Orlando against Nevada and then Florida State and then Gonzaga/VT/Northwestern

I imagine he will update again tonight or tomorrow

Lunardi's Sunday morning update...

Ponies are a 5 in Greenville against the USC/Xavier First Four winner

SMU gets Duke in the second round and then Gonzaga/Wichita State/Arkansas

That would be difficult but fun.

Would not want Duke as a 4 seed

#6 in Greenville vs. Syracuse/Xavier winner. Winner of Duke/UNC Greensboro awaits.

If there is one team I want to avoid in the first round it is Syracuse. A hot talented well coaches battle tested team. I wouldn't mind UTA or Nevada obviously they are solid, but we out horse them and don't think they will catch us sleeping like they might a UVA or someone like that. Like UTA lost to UL Lafayette yesterday. Outside of Cuse and maybe MSU I don't mind anyone we draw in the first round. We are hungry and talented.

The current ESPN bracket would not be the best path for us, imo

I totally agree. It's amazing how different a draw as a 5 can look with a few key teams shuffling.

Just coming here to post that.
USC, Duke and Gonzaga?

Damn.
