I won't predict final 4's just yet but how about the 4 #1 seeds?

I'd say UF and UCLA are locks right now. Lets say OSU and Wisky split the regular season and meet again in the B10 tourney and one team is 2-1. Is UNC playing themselves out of a #1 right now? Could both OSU and Wisky get a #1? Up till now I was assuming the winner of what will probably be a 2 game series between OSU and Wisky would get a #1 and the loser would not.

I think if we can win out the reg. season we will be a #1 lock regardless of what we do in the Big10 tourney, also remember that if we do end up playing Wisky in the big10 tourney finals the game will mean absolutely nothing, because the brackets are already made by the time the game tips off, which by the way is absolutly rediculuos.

I don't see any reason why Wisky and tOSU can both get a #1 seed.

I am not ready to give UCLA a number 1 seed just yet. They have 2 losses to unranked teams, and I really think the Pac-10 is just a wee bit overrated. Of course the big ten isnt the best conference, but our only loss were to 3 great teams on the road and if we can take out Wisky we will have some pretty solid wins with wins over Indiana, Wisky, Tennessee to go along with a great record.

I think UNC is also struggling with their losses to NC St. and Va Tech. Also A&M just lost at home vs TTech and Pitt got drilled by Louisville.

I think a lot will come down to how teams finish the season and conference tourneys, but at this point I think the only team that clear and away a 1 seed is UF...

Possibly but look at some of the Pac-10's OOC wins. I think they're just beating up on eachother right now.

I can agree with this partly, but why are some of the unranked teams beating the teams that are suppossed to be the top dogs, and UCLA's loss against WVU while a tough spot really looked bad...

I will agree that they will get quite a few teams in and they are pretty deep, but I just question about the top tier teams and whether they are as good as they are made out to be, but I guess big names are losing in all conferences...

I think you have a valid argument. The Pac-10 might end up like the Big-10 last year. Very deep but no premiere top talent. I still like UCLA and think teams like Oregon, Washington St., UCLA, and Stanford have the talent to go to the Elite 8. Arizona and Washington are also dangerous. I think the Pac-10 has lived up to the hype thus far.

I would crap my pants if 2 Big 10 teams get #1 seeds.


Hmmm, no, I wouldn't. Okay, I'll crap in my brother's pants if 2 Big 10 teams get #1 seeds.


Actually, I probably wouldn't do that either. Let's just say that I'd be shocked if a conference as weak as the Big 10 gets half the #1 seeds.

UCLA didn't have Collison, he's pretty key to UCLA success. PAC10 is a beast this year
