A 14 seed is certainly a possibility. I didn't take your post as a dig. I just wanted to state it that every bracketology post I've seen has Akron as a 14 seed. That way if Akron is a 14 seed, there's no shock to it. I fully expect a 13 seed too though. I did catch your joke and agree with it. I would have reacted to your joke with a laughing emoticon but I was out of reactions 😂 Edited March 13, 2022 by mes102 1 Quote

Princeton has a better NET and would likely be seeded ahead of us. We would likely be seeded ahead of Yale. In terms of NET, out of the other projected 14 seeds, Longwood is just ahead of us and St. Peter's is a couple spots ahead of us. Colgate is just below us and they're a projected 15 seed. If NET has a ton of weight for seeding, I think we most likely will be a 14 seed. Edited March 13, 2022 by mes102 Quote
LZIp Posted March 13, 2022 Report Posted March 13, 2022 Well Yale is going to knock off Princeton. Quote

RowdyZip Posted March 13, 2022 Report Posted March 13, 2022 Bracket Matrix has us as the top #14, before the Yale upset. That should bump us to 13. Bracket Matrix also has Illinois as the 2nd 4-seed. You do the math. If Davidson wins the A-10 (and maybe even if they don't), I think it's Akron/Illinois for the storyline. Quote

I forgot about the Bracket Matrix. They just updated it and have Yale as the lowest #13 seed and us as the top 14 seed. Quote
GJGood Posted March 13, 2022 Report Posted March 13, 2022 How cool would it be to get Duke and be known as the school to end Coach K’s career? They look like a potential 3 seed. Quote
RowdyZip Posted March 13, 2022 Report Posted March 13, 2022 Richmond upset Davidson in the A-10 final. Both teams will likely be seeded above us. Not ideal. I think we get a 14 unless the committee wants to hit that Groce/Illinois angle. Quote

It's just not your individual NET, but also who you beat and where. Longwood, St Peter's, Akron, and Montona St. all are within a few spots of one another. We might still be seeded below those teams, but the committee will also be looking at who each team beat. Akron has 2 Q2 wins while those 3 programs have a combined 0. None of the programs have a Q1 win. That's why I think Akron has a chance of being ahead of them. As for what the committee decides who knows. Edited March 13, 2022 by kreed5120 2 Quote
bigzipguy Posted March 13, 2022 Report Posted March 13, 2022 WE DO NOT TO PLAY DUKE. DO YOU THINK THAT WITH COACH K GOING AWAY FROM BASKETBALL, THE REFEREES WOULD EVEN ALLOW THAT GAME TO BE COMPETITIVE ????????? 3 Quote
zipsrule Posted March 13, 2022 Report Posted March 13, 2022 As of the 5:40 PM update on ESPN, we are still a 14 seed playing Wisconsin. Quote

Let'sGoZips94 Posted March 13, 2022 Report Posted March 13, 2022 Duke was thrown a bone. Snagged a 2 seed despite being the Ohio of the ACC (leaking oil down the stretch). Quote

clarkwgriswold Posted March 13, 2022 Report Posted March 13, 2022 So much for the Illinois angle. Pittsburgh would have been nice. Quote
