>Yeah, I think a #4 seed is about right this year. I just hope we're not headed for a first round upset like a certain other #4 seed yesterday. BTW it's ironic that our first round game is against a team coached by a former Big Ten adversary, don't you think? Anyway, how far we go will depend on which Illinois team shows up to play. It's been a weird and frustrating year for Illinois fans, players and coaches alike. But hey... it's tournament time, baby! Go Illini!

I'll echo that. Creighton (a #12) just beat Florida (#5) in double OT. Another year of upsets, it looks like. I didn't realize that Steve Fisher coached the Aztecs (in fact all I knew was the nickname< bg >). Was he the coach of Michigan the year we beat them twice during the regular season only to have them beat us in the Final Four?
