Could you imagine a #5 ranked basketball team from ANY conference getting a 4 seed?
I think you meant to post this in the Volleyball section.scott715 wrote:http://www.ncaa.com/rankings/volleyball-women/d1
We were ranked #16 this week. SD has an impressive resume beating UCLA and Stanford this year.
I can't imagine we would be a 4-seed. We are top 5 in both the RPI and rankings. The RPI will drop after St. Mary's, Pacific and Gonzaga, but we should still be really high. I would think we'd at least go in as a 2-seed.BlueK wrote:This is the only site I've seen that puts out a projection for NCAA tournament. It has BYU with a 4 seed. That would give us the first game at home and the second on a neutral field. I actually think BYU will get in on a 3, maybe a 2 if lucky. We do have several top 50 wins and our three best wins all came on the road.

Hmmm. Hadn't thought about that. It very well could. Of course, we beat LMU, so hopefully not much. I think I'm more worried about how playing St. Mary's, Pacific and Gonzaga will hurt it, even by winning.scott715 wrote:YES!!!
But will this hurt our rpi?
That's a good point, and like I said, this is the only bracketology there is for women's soccer. I tend to think BYU gets better than a 4, but I haven't looked closely at the resumes of every other team contending for a high seed.SpiffCoug wrote:Could you imagine a #5 ranked basketball team from ANY conference getting a 4 seed?
