  • Where will UNI be seeded?

    After being out of it for the last 10 years, much has changed in the landscape of college basketball. Fewer and fewer mid-majors make the tournament than they did 10 years ago, and it would appear that the seeding for mid-majors is probably lower than it used to be (not data to back that, could be wrong).

    So, all of that to say, where do you think UNI would land for a potential seed?

    Also fun for discussion, who would be a good match-up in that seed for UNI?

    I'm just so freaking excited that our beloved Panthers are dancing again!

    We're going to be a 12.

    We'll be evaluated as a 21-6 team with a fully healthy Tristan. Metrics in the 60s/70s.

    Give me Carolina. Best player is out. Hubert is abysmal on the bench. Perfect matchup for us.

      13, maybe 14 seems like the most likely.
      (Kansas is #19 and that would be an interesting matchup.)

        12, 13 or 14. I'll guess 13.

          Any idea where we might be playing? I saw that they have first round games in St Louis. That would be doable. I don’t think we’ve ever played within driving distance, though.

            I think the 12-line gives us a really great shot at a first-round upset. Carolina or Kansas would be really funny matchups for us because of past seasons. lol

              Lunardi had UIC as a 15 going to oklahoma city in his last braketology... wonder if we'll get more respect than UIC....i'm feeling the 14 line

                  We aren't going to be close unless we get criminally under seeded.

                    Should be a 12, will probably get the 13 if Liberty and Yale win their conference tournaments.

                      I don't think we can be in St. Louis because the Conference is the host for that round.

                        That only applies to schools hosting. We can be placed in StL but we won't be as those are both very likely to be 2-seed pods.

                        Plan on San Diego, Portland or Philadelphia.

                          Lundari's first bracketology update with us in it, has us as a 12 seed, against Tenn.

                            I stand corrected, Lunardi like others have mentioned has Liberty as a 13 in favor of us being at 12.
