I have decided to go with Duke as my #2 seed. Must remember that the Big Ten is down, and Wisconsin played three games that mattered OOC. Is 19-2 in Big Ten that much better then 14-4 in the ACC (consider that a draw especially when one of Duke's win is against UNC away)
Wisconsin - lost Marquette, lost Duke, beat Texas
Duke - beat Marquette, beat Wisconsin, lost Pitt
To me when you look at tit like that, you have to go with Duke. Time to change my bracket.... ugh.
Also going to move Butler up to a 5.
HOWEVER, as I do think the committee sees Duke as a 2, they see them behind Georgetown.... for that reason, Georgetown will travel to Raleigh (there closest trip) and Duke will travel to Washington.
For those making the brackets, remember that Kansas / Texas are likely to be pegged on the bracket .. winner / loser.
Also remember that Texas has played Tennessee and UCLA so you have to separate the two, because they don't want 1-2 rematches until the final four.
Because of that expect Tennessee to be in the same region as UNC or UCLA which is quite unfair.... the fairest spot would be against Kansas, but they don't want a potential rematch with Texas.
