Tournament brackets

what story do you want to tell? Duke went 6-2 in their last 8 games, and that was the last 3 weeks. All of their last 10 games (beginning 2/15) were against tournament teams, 2 NIT, 8 NCAA. Again, please show me a team that played this schedule during this last month?

Who cares about their last 8 games? Their last 10 is what the committee supposedly uses to put teams in the tournament and where they seed them. They lost 4 games and did not win their conference tournament. You should not get a #1 seed doing that. At least St. Joes and Stanford only lost one in that period of time. And St. Joes is going to lose really early when they play a team with some size and ability. They live too much by the 3 to win a NC in my opinion. But this is not about the Big Ten for me. They got what they earned and deserve. But to make Maryland a #4 seed and Duke a #1 seed with what they did this year, is rather silly to me.
