    very good chance that we get bounced in the 1st round and absolutely NO chance that we are beating UNC

    yep. might as well not watch. decent shot at being upset in first round and 0 chance of beating UNC. maybe if lawson is out there is a prayer, but not really.

    Slive did not do the SEC any favors. TV said it was a fair process, I think it is Slive just bending over....

    Butler is a good team..looks like one and done.Losing 3 out of your last 4 caught up to them in the seeding.Well football season around the corner and baseball is here.Good luck next year.At least got a SEC Championship out of it.:geaux:

    I like it. A great opening round opponent. If we win, then we get to play one of college basketball's elite. Two potentially fun matchups to watch.

    No way we should have been an 8 seed.

    Could have earned a better seed by closing the season strongly. It is what it is. realistically, none of us should be looking to hang our hats on a sweet sixteen appearance. They play to win the ultimate goal, not for moral victories. Our boys will just have to beat the best teams early on. Can they do it? Odds are against our team. Never expected LSU to beat Duke a few years ago though.......

    I just won $150 by predicting an 8 seed and I win the other $150 if they win in the 1st round.

    I am little worried about the 2nd part of my bet against Butler.

    Do they have a good big man?

    Butler's top two scorers are 6-8 so that does not bode well for us..... It's a tough draw but we'll see what happens
