Rodney Dangerfield? Pt Deux – Roundball Edition

[Wufpacker]

Way too early bracketology time over at ESPN.com apparently.
Joey Brackets must be bored….sheeeesh.

Pack in with a 7 seed. Too high, too low, or Goldilocks?

I’m not disappointed by it, but think we have a chance to better that by as many as 2 spots. We also have the potential to tank and miss completely. It’ll be a shit ton of fun around here next summer if that happens.

But I digress….

Carolina and Maryland both #1’s.
(If that actually happens, I might just have to finally follow thru on my “just in case” suicide plans.)

I saw that. I think 7 is showing respect while acknowledging the unknown. And it is way too early.

Methinks that’s a safe and fair “median outcome” prediction, albeit with wide variance in each direction.

I would not be surprised to see the Pack on the 1 line and the Holes on the 7, either.

At least half of that would surprise the shit out of me, fwiw.
To be clear, I can see the holes as a 7.

I am optimistic that we are set to have our best season since 1988-89 this year. Assuming our rotation players stay healthy, I think we will finish top 4 in conference, which should be good enough for a 4 seed or better.

I love this team and the lineup possibilities it provides to the coaching staff. It should be better on defense this year than last year, and it should also be better offensively, if Cat continues his late season play from last year.

I think this is the year to go beyond the Sweet 16.

Also, did I miss something with Notre Dame? They lost Grant and Connaughton, their best two players, and added zero top 100 recruits. How do they rate a 5 seed?
