Because 1 time in our last 7 tourney appearances BYU got docked for Sunday play.

Mr. Scoobs All-American

So now it’s popular to believe that BYU is ALWAYS under-seeded despite it having a low likelihood of being an issue.

Last time BYU didn’t get the seed as expected they were OVERseeded—projected as a 12 seed play-in and got a 10 seed.

We have moved up to 25 on Lunardi’s S curve...one spot away from a 6 seed.

I'm expecting to be in the 8-9 game

Why? Based on how much we’ll drop after a WCC tourney loss?

Yup. And the time we got underseeded was clearly an issue with the play-in game of some sorts.

We are always a seed or two lower than we anticipated

I think this has been debunked, especially in recent tourney appearances

We don't have any recent appearances, but do share.

Meaning our most recent appearances from 2010 - 2015

If by debunked you mean validated, then yes.

That’s not true at all.

Well I disagree with your disagreement; so there!

kimdaddy35

3/4/21 11:20am

You disagree based off what? 2015 we were a 11 in Bracket Matrix, got an 11 seed

Oh wait, it does go back further. 2011 BM-3. Actual: 3. 2010 BM-6. Actual 7.

A shame as from 2006-2010 we were under seeded every single year

kimdaddy35

3/4/21 11:29am

Also false: 2006-2010 we were under seeded twice out of four trips.

TCuz

3/4/21 11:33am

We were underseeded every one of those years

In your fantasyland, I guess.

If we make it to the finals, I would be extremely disappointed if that happens

Colorado and Crieghton both have THREE Q3 losses. I would hope they’d get

I'm worried we will get either N. Carolina or Michigan State in round 1.

Right now Georgia Tech scares me more than either of them

Virginia Tech being ahead of us baffles me. Their top win is better than our

What do you think about CU/Creighton having three Q3 losses? Feels like BYU

Mr. Scoobs

3/4/21 11:19am

Will be interested to see how the committee treats them comparatively.

jreid191

3/4/21 11:33am

WCC isn't given enough credit. Until someone in conf hands the Zags at least

SinkingQuffa

3/4/21 11:20am

MW has 4 top 50 teams which mean lots of Q1 games. WCC has Gonzaga who has been

Mr. Scoobs

Not playing on Sundays might play a part in being ranked lower than those teams

Mostlyaccurate

3/4/21 12:20pm

Not on the S-curve. Sunday play doesn't come into play until the S-curve has

Q1-A is top 40, correct? Hopefully Utah St. can finish strong and get there.

Mr. Scoobs

3/4/21 1:18pm

Top 25 for Neutral, top 15 for home, and I think top 40 for road.

jreid191

Maybe with another thumping from Gonzaga, we'll move up to a 5!
