Pacific a #8 seed u got to be kidding me?

[ageecee]

yea i know they didnt play nobody but they did beat Nevada at Nevada and also beat fresno St but lost to kansas where they only trailed by 1 at half.

This is the #18 ranked team and there a #8 seed. Im not begging for a #4 or 5 seed but a #6 would have been good enough for me.

Am i the only one that thinks this #8 seed is a little low?

 

[c note]

agee....i think its a very bad draw for pacific....i think pitt sneaks by pacific and then takes down wash...

They lost the conference title game. Otherwise they'd probably be a seed or two higher.

 

[dr. freeze]

i think its a little high

do you think they are better than Iowa State, a #9?

how about Pitt, another #9? (i guess we will see)

how about NC State, a #10?

Miss State, a #10?

if anything they should be a 10-11 seed IMO

I really think they can beat all 4 teams you mentioned dr freeze.

well the idiot at espn doug gotlieb said "realistically, they are looking at a 14 seed"....said this about 2-3 weeks ago.....

wel freeze come on now. first you know rankings mean nada. second, Pacific is a nice team, but tell me exactly who they beat to show they should be high rated? could say same of Nevada at a 9. No real way to know where they SHOULD be.

 

[Hoops]

Did nothing out of conference.

Like I said in another thread, the AP or Coaches poll rankings don't mean anything in terms of seeding or the selection process.

 

[ageecee]

I know rankings mean nothing but a #8 seed.

This is a sleeper team just like Gonzaga was 5 years ago

Last time I looked teams like Nevada did major damage last year..........sent some of the bigger names packing........

i said i thought they were given too high a seed

i think they should be a #10-11 seed

what a team did 5 years ago is irrelevant i remember folks griping that Gonbzaga was seeded too low 2 years ago and they promptly got beat by a woeful WYoming team. then last year Zags couldnt even win 2 games as the higher seed in Seattle
