#2 seed in DC with Regional in Detroit...that would be a dream bracket.

[Mr. Neutral]

UMass and URI both in as 11 seeds.

SJU and UD in the "last four out" group.

[Wisexuowl]

Fun to read, good to see the red arrow pointing up, but how can we possibly be a second seed.

I'm going by memory now, but after the ASU loss I was told on MM by Mr Neutral (?) that we were going to be a "bubble team" come selection Sunday.

Can't see us going from bubble to #2, as much as I would like to see it.

[MillerTime]

In order for us to actually get a 2 seed, I believe we will have to win out, including the A-10 tourney. In order for us to get a 3 seed, I think we can only lose 1, possibly 2 games. Our remaining 2 away games will reveal a lot about where we are seeded.

[Mr. Neutral]

That's because we had that big win over Chicago Circle, Wise. And the committee will be taking our '05 NIT bid into account as well!

[XU 87]

Note to Wise and Mr. Neutral- this constant bantering back and forth is getting a little old. Save it for the UD fans.

Further note to Wise: We are all aware that Mr. Neutral is not exactly Mr. Optimist. I think he even admits it. On a side note, I do like reading your stories from "back in the day".

Carry on.

[XU 87]

Despite their still respectable RPI, I'm a little surprised that Lunardi is still giving UD strong consideration in light of their complete collapse. They are 3-7 in their last 10 games, with losses to LaSalle, GW and Richmond.

[Il Saggio]

I've never met Mr. Neutral or the inaptly-named Wisexuowl (or, for that matter, any of Mr. Neutral's other detractors on this site) but, from having read Wise's--and the others'--countless rancid and impertinent comments about, as well as the unprovoked (and always irrelevant) attacks on him, I wonder about the basis for such animus. Whatever the reason (jealousy?), it is unbecoming, childish (as in second childhood) and--yes--embarrassing and tiresome. Or does "Wise" feel that he has a good reason?

When I look at the brackets, besides the #1 seeds, I honestly look at the rest of the field and know that we can play and beat any of them!

Pessimist! We could take a few of them #1s too!
