    We are number seven and there are four brackets. That tells me we would be a number two seed which sounds about right to me.

    I don't disagree with that... I think Duke is about a 2 seed right now.

    If we were to win out we should be a number one because we would have to beat UNC and Georgia Tech on the road. That seems unlikely though so I think a two seed is where we will end up. That is not too bad given that this is supposed to be a down year for Duke.

    The ACC tournament should not have as much bearing. It is hard to win three games in three days with a short bench.

    shouldn't but it does. If you take 2+ you help your case. You lose in the opening it hurts bad.

    If the polls don't mean as much why all the bitching?

    I'm actually surprised Duke didn't fall around 9 or 10. That loss to VT hurt bad. Duke needed that win against Wake badly, and I think the ACC tournament is really a toss up. Everyone in the top 5 could win it, and Duke will need to win their first and maybe their second to get a #2 seed. It shouldn't be that way with the ACC being as strong as it is, but it's hard to tell right now with a lot of games to go. I'd like to see Kansas go down again tonight.

    What are you smoking? The committee will look at that very thing when looking at seedings. They look at things like how you finished the season, any late season key injuries, if having a short bench will not make you as good a tourney team. The bench was one of the main things that Bilas said would hurt dook in the seedings.
