Wouldn't this be Awesome



I'm sure you all check the "Bracketology" of Joe Lunardi every once in awhile, and while his reasoning can be skewed and sometimes completely arbitrary, this week I HOPE HE IS RIGHT!

Our 1 seed is BYU? I'll take that over the others, mid-major high seeds (with the exception of Butler last year) tend to not fulfill their expectations in the NCAA tourney.

Our 2 seed is Notre Dame: I know the season is long and teams change (injuries, experience, etc) but we all know what happened earlier this year. We beat Notre Dame handily on a neutral court (the term "neutral court doesn't really apply to UK since BBN is everywhere).

Our 3 seed is UNC: they beat us by 2 AT Chapel Hill, plus as a UK fan I'd love to play them again and beat them.

Our 4 seed is St. Johns? Okay I know that the Big East deserves 1,830,282 teams in the tourney right (joke) but St. Johns struggles more on the road than UK wich says a lot.

UK IS THE 5 SEED: we play Butler. I don't know about you all BBN but I have been DYING to play a team like Butler to shut the critics up about how Mid Majors are so awesome.

The rest is pretty self explanatory, we beat the 9 seed WashU and I think we could handle A&M at the 6 spot. George Mason is the 7 seed (hahahahaha).

To be honest Michigan State scares me the most out of all these teams at the 10 seed. I know they have struggled all year but Izzo has been to 6 final fours in the last 12 years and State is LOADED with talent.

Just thought this was fun to check out, I know it won't happen....but what if?

If you have time look at the other 3 regions and you will start to pray we get where we are seeded now.

Go Cats (and please let Joe Lunardi be correct)
