How I'd seed a 16 team tournament

[Valuist]

Number 1s: Oklahoma, Miami FL, Iowa, Ohio State
Number 2s: USC, Kansas St, Georgia, Alabama (I'm letting them in)
Number 3s: Washington St, Texas, Notre Dame, Penn State
Number 4s: Colorado, Maryland, Boise State, Pittsburgh

Doesn't seem to be out of whack at all. If Ohio St falls this weekend where would you drop them to and who would you move up into the vacant number 1 spot.

What's weird is looking at it and not seeing Florida St, Nebraska, Florida, or Michigan. Kind of a twilight zone feeling.

I think I'd put Alabama in as a #1 seed and drop Iowa to a #2.
That team is good, their defense is awesome.

Would be fun to play out.

Would the Suckeyes be a #1 seed underdog at a neutral field to Colorado??????

On a neutraul field Ohio State would lose to Colorado

I forgot Florida State. I'd put them as a 4 seed and replace Pitt.

Thegridiron--Would Ohio State lose to Colorado on a neutral? Maybe 3 times out of 10. Colorado's defense gives up way too many points and yardage. 6 times they've given up 27 pts or more. I think Chris Brown (who should still be on Northwestern) would struggle.

Joshnaudi-

If OSU loses, they'd probably still be a 2 seed. If they lost 48-0, then it might be a different story.

OSU a dog to Colorado? Not on any neutral field. I think they would be a small chalk in Boulder.

Valuist...

Not trying to split hairs....but FSU beat Maryland...wouldn't you put them at the head of the 4 seeds at the minimum?:shrug:

Obviously I am a homer

I'm not one of those who believes because Team A beat Team B that Team A MUST be placed ahead of team B. That game was a long time ago, and I think Fla St is glad they don't have to play Maryland right now.
