Seems like Tennessee might have peaked a little too early, they've been losing a lot lately. I think this one and done in the SEC tournament drops them down to anywhere from 4-6 seed for the big dance now; meaning they would be opposite the 11-13 range we probably fall into. Despite the slump I still wouldn't bet against Bruce winning a couple games in the tournament.

This definitely puts Tennessee at a 4 or 5 seed and a possible opponent in the first round.

If they draw a 14 seed and have to face either LSU, North Carolina or Tennessee...it'll be real, real tough!
UCLA would be the one team of those 4 that I'd be ok with playing. But even then...I don't like the 14-3 match-up at all.
Of the 4 seeds...Iowa and George Washington would be good match-ups for UWM. I think West Virginia is going to be a sleeper(kind of) in the tourney and Pittsburgh is very strong. Both of them are also from the Big East, possibly the strongest conference in America this year.
I think GW is over-rated a little. Not that they aren't a good team though. As for Iowa...they've only won 1 game in the tourney under Steve Alford and I think he's been there for 6 years and made the tourney all but one year.
Florida, Kansas, Washington and BC...I'm with Art Vandelay...Florida!
Hopefully they keep us away from Kansas...I think the Big 12 is largely under-rated as a conference and KU's athleticism and youth scares me.
Washington...I know very little about, but I agree that the Pac-10 never seems like a legitimately strong conference, therefore...I'd like UWM's chances. BC...let's beat them again.
I would love a Marquette match-up (anyone who is at all affiliated with UWM would want to see that).
The other 3(G-town, NC St. and Oklahoma would all be very difficult games). Not sure I'd like to face any of them, but if I had to...I'd say G-town.
