Bracket reflects the dominance of the ACC this year. Nine teams in, three top seeds (Wake and FSU in addition to Duke), six teams seeded overall.
Duke plays Radford in the first round, and if they advance they will play either Kansas or Georgia.
The idiots at Top Drawer Soccer who have had no love at all for the ACC all season look awfully foolish with Stanford and Oklahoma State in the same quarter of the bracket. That makes OKSt either number seven or eight overall.
The top eight teams in the final NCAA RPI rankings were Duke, Stanford, UVa, Wake, Memphis (who ended up as the four seed in FSU's region), OKSt, UCLA, and FSU. FSU's ACC Tournament win obviously gave them a huge boost in the eyes of the committee.
Auburn's early-season win over Duke must have been heavily weighted by the committee. They were number 27 in the last RPI, and got a three seed.
Going to be fun. Go Devils!
