    Here's what Lunardi has:

    Last 4 byes: Georgia, BYU, Colorado St, Texas
    Last 4 in: Temple, LSU, Boise St, Ole Miss
    Last 4 out: Indiana, UCLA, Miami, Old Dominion

    I really have no opinion on these because i don't know all the bpi's, rpi's, sos of these teams. I'm a little surprised to see Colorado St as a bye. MWC was pretty weak this year and can't think of anyone they really beat.

    bubble will be interesting, it always seems like the committee messes up on the auto bid teams with seeding

    My favorite matchup Lunardi has is the 7/10 matchup of Iowa vs BYU. Could possibly have 10 white guys on the court at one time.

    Last few years i've never had a problem with a team getting snubbed or getting in. Usually there are big problems with seeding and where teams have to travel. It's pretty easy imo for a committee to pick the right 68 teams, but seeding them is where it gets difficult.

    any one who gets left out this season will have no beef, bubble teams are soft this season

    Yeah Texas probably doesn't deserve at all to be in it, but if they do get in they can make some noise because of their talent. Before college bball started this year I had them as a team that could win it all.

    what i dont get about texas is that they got rewarded for losing to good teams over and over assuming they get in, id rather see old dominion who went 5-2 against the top 100, granted they have some bad losses

    Lunardi's #3 seeds look dangerous: Notre Dame, Oklahoma, Iowa St, and Maryland. Not so much Maryland, but the other 3. Imo those 3 are the best scoring teams in the nation. Lunardi's #2 seeds look weak: Kansas, Virginia, Zona and Zags. I kind of thought ISU deserves to be seeded ahead of KU after yesterdays game.

    Wow Wichita got hosed again as a #7 seed. And bubble just bursted with Hoosiers in. Wichita should beat KU if they meet in round 2.

    Sorry meader, Texas is in.

    Potentially playing a big ten team with 2 7footers in second round. Taste of their own medicine?

    Belmont vs Virginia, has upset potential, definitely will be taking the points in that match-up. Mich State vs Virginia in round 3? Nice

    seeding a joke.. shockers a 7 seed and uni a 5? pretty much lets any hopefully bubble team from a weaker conf know where they stand.
