The Moment You’ve All Been Waiting For – Selection Sunday Thread

Welcome to the NCAA Selection Show on CBS Thread on KSR! That may be a mouthful, but you know what’s not? The phrase ‘three seed.’ I will be updating this thread as the pairings come in, but feel free to use the comment section to discuss early impressions of the bracket, such as how easy Duke has it this year, why our road to the final four is the toughest, and which dance teams are must see’s this year.

It’s about time Duke got sent away from Greensboro
#1 – No kidding
Duke will get a total cakewalk bracket out there AGAIN. They’ll have SDSU as their 2-seed.
Seems like Chuck is recruiting for Calipari.
Hopefully UK is in the West region. It’ll be the easiest of the four, they’re gonna try to hand another to Duke on a silver platter…
Puke gets a #1 seed!!!! I think I’m gonna puuuuukkkkeeee!!!!!
Pitt, really? Those punks lost their first game of their tournament. No way Pitt gets a #1. This sucks so badly it isn’t even funny. Pitt is good, but come on, they lost their first conference tournament game. I hope every single BE team loses their first game and shows how over-rated that conference is. They have a couple of good teams, no doubt, but every team making the tournament is a stretch and Pitt being a #1 is ridiculous.
The way they have it right now I would trade with #4 seed Winsconsin anyday, they have it real easy. We have the worst #3 seed they are.
Wow, Duke gets an easy bracket AGAIN. The western bracket is almost always the easiest, and Duke should just sleepwalk to a final four.
Please put us in the SE with Pitt !!!
First 1 seed to lose, Pitt, overrated.
next year can we do this as a liveblog?
WOO GO CATS!
we got screwed !!!
hmmmmmmmm,,,,,,,,,
A four seed, seriously…Damn the NCAA
WTF!!!
are i kidding me
are u kidding me
this draw is worse than last year
bs
WHATTTTTTT, a 4 seed????
Ivy and Huggins? Deja vu.
Georgia?? Do you suuppose the NCAA is going to start Pearl’s punishment early?
all of Wildcat Nation’s butt should be sore.
So Kentucky is no better than they were going into the conference tournament. If Florida gets a 3 seed in an easy bracket, I swear…
Wow a 4 seed and Georgia as a 10. The selection committee must have set the field on Thursday.
Screwed by the NCAA all the way around this year. Lets just make it a good run and give them hell!!!! F*CK Duke!!!!
We got robbed!!! and Duke got rewarded yet again!!
What a crock of BS taht draw is . We must be the last 4 seed
IF Cal can finally beat Huggins, then we have to meet the overall top seed in the sweet sixteen!!! Wow!!! No respect for the SEC champs!!!
How the hell did TN get in? SEC now has 3 teams in. Georgia, UK and TN
robbed.
Un fing believable……WTF, they should have a round at the yum center and let UK play there every year. Cant believe we didnt at least get a 3 seed……ridiculous
If Loserville and Florida gets 3 seeds, I’ll travel to Indy and piss on the NCAA office.
Complete. Total. Bullsh!t.
Bunch of crap!! How do we manage to get (1) only a 4 seed, (2) get a matchup with WV in the second round and (3) OhSt in the 3rd round. Terrible draw. No way
Duke starting in Charlotte….huge surprise there…. another patsy laced path to the final four for Puke..
duke get the worst 2 seed yet again
duke plays in charlotte
The only rule I had for the committee was to screw Kentucky…looks like they did their job
duke gets the worst 2 seed yet again
FUC* THE Go* Dam* NCAA
Bull SHit!!!
FUC* THE Go* Dam* NCAA
Bull SHit!!!
I’m leaving the tournament committee. Another cake wake for Duke and UK got completely hosed with a #4 in OSU’s region. What a freakin joke!
Well, it could not have turned out worse for the CATs…..but now let’s show the B-tards what we’re made of !!
watch Louisville get a freaking three seed
WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF? Screw it–bring it ON.
The committee already had Kentucky seeded and it would have made a huge mess to move them around. They have guidelines to follow and moving Kentucky around would have caused them to do more work in a short period of time. This kind of crap shouldnt be a shock to any of you. Its time we stop whining and show the nation how good we are against the best teams. Hey, Ohio State and UNC also have to play in this bracket. I remember Tennessee sneaking through a tough bracket last year. Just cheer the CATS on and accept everyone hates us.
Duke doesn’t even play a legit top 20 team to make the final four, what a joke. I am going to boycott the tournament this year.
I thought Cats would at least get a #3 seed but I think #4 seed with playing Princeton out of Ivy League is not a bad draw. I wanted Cats to dodge the likes of Oakland and Belmont who will upset some teams in the first round. Oakland lost to MSU by 1 point and Belmont lost to TN by two or three points. We can continue the theme of REVENGE when we meet WV in the second round.
Well at least Duke gets a cakewalk into the four final again, they’ve really deserved it the last 2 years…
nuts and bolts….
We need CM Newton on the selection committee again.
Go Morehead. beat the tards
I really wish that Al Qaeda would place a fatwa on the NCAA. Seriously.
louisville will lose in the second round to vanderbilt
We got screwed
51. The revenge theme is only applicable to a few players from last year’s team. Won’t be a huge factor.
Are we being punked is this goin to be on MTV?
Pelphrey just got canned
F it, looking forward to a rematch against WVU. They got lucky last year, 9 times out of 10 we stomp them. They got lucky with 3 point shooting. Bring ’em on. Big East can suck it and we’ll stomp these bitches.
sw region is loaded
Im ussually not an instigator of the NCAA hate and claimed “biased”. even after the Enes Kanter situation. But this is just terrible. WE smashed the #1 team in the west by double digits, and turned around and smashed Florida, the #12 overall team by double digits! This somehow makes us the last four seed? the 19th team in the nation, dropping 3-4 spots?!?!?! What. A. JOKE. Also, this may be the worst crafted bracket ever. Purdue as a 3 seed? UGA in the tourny as a 10 seed? UT at 9? And you have got to be kidding me… deliberatly placing UK against WVU… I’m afraid you can add me to the list of “NCAA haters”
rpi top 12, won sec conference tourney……….. how do we not get a 3 gtfo

Puke gets it easy and UK gets screwed again. Let’s just take down the EER’S!!!!
Go Morehead!!!
Turrible… Just turrible.
Hahahahahahahaha. Yall won’t make it past the first weekend!!! Party at Bruce’s place!!!!
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuullllllllllllllllllsssssssssssssssshiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitttttttttttttttttttt florida
What. The. Hell?
Florida 2, UK 4. WTF!!
The Selection committee is a joke, I would get fired if I was that shitty at my job
Florida with a 2 seed???????????????
WTF… Didnt we just kill them?
Florida got a #2 wow
52. I don’t think Dukes schedule is a cakewalk, they got Michigan, TN, Texas, San Diegom Missouri. This is not an easy bracket as well. plenty of top flight athletic players in that league.
Florida a 2 bullshit
florida with a 2 seed?
total. absolute. shock.
We paste Florida in the conference tourney, after beating them at the end of the season, and they get a 2 in Pitt’s bracket while we get a 4 in Ohio St’s.
Ugh.
Damn gaytors got a 2 seed. WTF!!!!!
OH uf as a 2 seed…. this is rigged.
70, momma called, you’re f*cking cookies are ready. Get the f*ck out of here.
70. Lord knows you will be at Bruce’s after game 2.
HOW IN THE HECK DOES FLORIDA GET A 2 SEED?!??!!?!?!
Oh and Bob Huggins is gonna own yall again!!!!!! Hahahahahhahaha
A two seed!!! WTF!!!!!
70, momma called, your f*cking cookies are ready. Get the f*ck out of here.
Did the ncaa not even watch the game today
Obvious that conference tournament results only matter if you are Duke. Absolutely unbelievable.
Florida a 2 seed!!! they wasn’t even in the top ten going into conference tourney…. did they serve “special brownies” to the committee… lol
wow flordia gettin a 2 seed can someone please explain this to me??
wow flordia gettin a 2 seed can someone please explain this to me??
LOL @ Florida #2, UK #4
how in the hell do the gators get a 2 seed?
bring on the BCS bowl system for basketball. Anything is better than this shit!
Wow…we got totally hosed.
The NCAA is a joke….
Apparently the following mean nothing:
1. RIP
2. KenPom
3. Strength of Schedule
4. Conference Championship
A four seed??? The committee must have been in a cave the last 3 weeks. What ever happened the record in the last 10 games.
Let’s go Cats and show these NCAA Smucks up!
Is this real life?
NO ONE CAN BEAT US IF WE SHOW UP LIKE WE DID IN ATL!
100–a couple of years ago they announced they weren’t going to weigh the final 10 games.
The 4 was bad, but sometimes they move teams up and down a line for avoid conference matchups and other things.
Florida as a 2 was inexcusable.
NCAA is a joke. Shit is rigged. FTW
Did they make the Southeast region so weak so they could talk about Jimmer for a couple more weeks?
That bracket is just awful–at least Duke didn’t get put there.
i like our side of the bracket. if we win our 1st two and osu wins theirs i think we can beat them if we play like we did in the sec tourny. i live in ohigh and have watched osu play several times. they seem to have trouble getting out fast against teams, even weak teams. that could be real trouble for them against UK. our shooters are as good as theirs and they’re not very deep. also i’ve seen games where sullinger looks very managable. ask enes about that
Not only did Florida get at 2 seed. But they got BYU as their 3!!!!
How does Florida get a 2 seed when we just won over them in the SEC tourney. We won the series head-to-head. This is such horse s&^t
WOW! Joe Lenordi should be picking the teams!!!!! man the NCAA hates us
WOW! Joe Lenordi should be picking the teams!!!!! man the NCAA hates us
91. You ain’t said shit. That’s clear.
we have played 3 teams on our side of the bracket already, how many other teams have played 3 teams in their own bracket?
The NCAA did an awful job period. They did these things to get a 96 team field. Im convinced that they did not watch UK play the last 10 games. I hope we win it all and Florida loses to their 15. Go Cats!
Still shocked. And the teams that didn’t get in compared to UAB and VCU? No one is pointing out the craziness of UF seed compared to UK because of the absurdity of UAB and VCU getting in.
Just stopped by to say this blows and someone needs to be jailed for that bull crap set of brackets.
What a bunch of horse sh*t. This is the worst job the NCAA has done on a bracket ever. Florida a 2? WTF????
Good point 113.
NCAA sucks… let’s go out and kick all their asses!!!
F Princeton, I want UK to play against the committee in the first round.
all i am curious about is the insanely weak southeast bracket.
the worst 1, 2, 3 and 4. its absurd
Florida a 2 and we get a 4? Why did we even f’ing bother playing today?!?
Holy Crap. What a crock of a tournament seeding.
pretty bad when even espn thinks we got robbed….
Buwhahah! Ksr readers whine about everything. Face it the acc owns the selection committee. Duke and UNC to houston! Rolmao.

Seeding sucks!!!!!!!!!
70-You are a friggin idiot man. If your going to troll on here come up with something creative at least. Not one prediction you’ve made in the last week has been even close. You were flapping about how FL was going to crush us today. How did that work out dummy? Go focus on your cheater coach and soon to be loser program. Because it will be a looooong time before UT is relevant again.
Conn finish 9th reg seasnon Big East Louisville 3rd. winning big east tournament made a big difference here. Shows no respect for KY and pats Florida on the back for what?
Uk beats the gayturds 2 out of 3 and they get a 2 and Cats a 4. That my friends is the definition of getting HOSED!
It would have been interesting to see what seer Kentucky would have got if they lost today. Either te SEC tourney means nothing to them or a 4th seed was the only way to have Kentucky in the hardest bracket imaginable.
outside of a couple of tough road losses midseason we have been a dominant home and nuetral court team this year. we also took apart louisville at there place. we dominated florida twice in 9 days and get a 4 seed? and lets not pretend that we cant beat ohio state or anybody. we are as talented a team 6-deep goes in the country playing our best ball of the year. talk about matchups all u want but talent and execution will win out.
and too call this a down year is ignorant and stupid. were 25-8 playing one of the toughest schedules in the county with a young team and without its best player kanter. add in another impressive sec championship with guys like doron and others hurt and its pretty sweet. right now i say we make it to the sweet 16 with a good chance to advance from there and if we do we will have as good a chance as anybody.
Unfortunately, I think we are going to have to get used to getting screwed as long as Cal is our coach. There is no love lost between the NCAA and Cal.
im really impressed with this team this year. 25-8 with a tough schedule, young kids, a lack of depth and our best player kanter out is sweet. we are talented, hungry, and playing our best ball right now. if we play smart and execute even against ohio state or whom ever we will continue to advance.
#70 You got one thing right, the only party thats gonna be taken place is saturday watching Kentucky go to the 16 after tennessee gets beat by Michigan. Tenn shoulda stuck with the NIT, they don’t have a snowballs chance in hell in the big boys tourny
what a joke.
How funny that I heard Ken Pomeroy and Jerry Palm both say last week that the selection committee doesn’t use conference standings to seed. How t/f can they use any argument other than conference standings to put Florida above us. UK better head to head, better rpi better kenpom and better sos.
GO CATS!
last. Haha!
Everyone else gets to play in warm destinations, but we have to go to Newark.
