In the NCAA tourney?
nevermind, gotcha.Comment -
Banned for stupidity. Conference RPI is too weak for any of the top tier teams here to probably get better than a #3.Comment -
yea I cant believe that none of the other tiebreakers decide, f'n coinflipComment -
Cincy should be DQ'ed for struggling against Rutgers while L'Ville whooped ass. We all know who the number 1 team is in that conference at this point. L'Ville ready to roll.Comment -
I take back my banned for stupidity and shift to banned for lack of explanation. Had no idea about this and the OP explains about as much as telling someone bananas jump.Comment -
I would not want to play them
underrated and anstyComment -

WAIT, why doesn't Louisville get the top seed? Isn't the second tiebreaker to go down the standings to see how the tied teams did against each team until the tie so broken?Comment -
they were all tiesComment -
for the situation, its just weird how this works IMOComment -
um UL beat SMU & Uconn both who beat cincyComment -
the way that I understand it for this it only goes to overall record, conf record, since they were tied third breaker is a coinflipComment -
that one's better LT ^^Comment -
No first tiebreak is head-to-head, second tiebreak is going down standings, third is coin flip.

worst 1 seed ever stop kilpatrick and they are going to get annihilated. i still cant beleive they put up 167 points in their last two games..prolly wont happen ever again IMPComment -

A HA, I see. I was assuming SMU would be considered the third place team since they are the three-seed, but I see now that how the tiebreaker works is it looks at Louisville's and Cincinnati's records vs. all three teams that finished tied for third (SMU, UConn, Memphis), and both teams went 4-2. Damn.
ThanksComment -
Yeah now that I reread it, it makes perfect sense. They break all ties going top to bottom, meaning that SMU is not really determined to be the third seed until the first two seeds are set. So first thing is Louisville and Cincy split head-to-head, they both went 4-2 vs. the three teams tied for third and they both went undefeated vs. the rest of the conference, Ergo, coin flip.
THEN, after that is determined, SMU, UConn and Memphis are seeded 3-4-5 because SMU went 3-1 vs. the other two teams, Conn went 2-2 and Memphis went 1-3.Comment -
ok got it now. What I didn't get was why SMU was not seeded but that makes senseComment -
I know that's Crazy LOLComment -
Gotta feel bad for the guys that had futures on Louisville winning AAC. 5 Dimes and BOL are among the books that explicitly stated in the rules that in the event of a tie, the #1 seed in the AAC Tournament would be considered the winner.
It was like flipping a coin for money.

#2 seed has a much easier road to the finalComment -
