    I called this yesterday (conditional on them beating unc). I get the argument for their bad losses but their resume against Duke and Carolina is strong and I thought that would be enough to bump them up.

    Florida State is not a team that Ohio State wants to see.

    Florida state wins this region. Syracuse will get ~2 rebounds all game against FSU.

    K-State is a team that Syracuse did not want to see in the second round. The Wildcats could lose to Southern Miss, but they are the exact type of team that can give Syracuse problems. If you are looking for a 1 seed losing in the second round, that's got to be it.

    I like Ohio St. in this region. I think there is a lot to be said about them getting out of the Big 10 for a while.

    Syracuse should travel pretty well to Boston; if they get out of KSU alive, I like them over OSU. Sullinger struggles with length anyway.

    Uh Oh

    Digger just picked Florida State over Ohio State on ESPN.

    This region is full of bad teams for Syracuse Kansas St. Vanderbilt, and FSU. I could see Vandy riding the hot streak right to the final 4 as FSU is bound to go cold soon.

    I really like Ohio St. in this region. I am definitely one of those people that think the Buckeyes just needed to get out of the Big Ten for a bit. I can't imagine Florida St. putting together 4 straight good games (much like last year). They just did 3 in a row, though, so who knows. Although the last 2 were against teams missing a key player.

    I could also see Vandy, with a recent history of losing too early, feeling a little too full of themselves after the UK upset and getting beaten in the first round by Harvard.

    Just caught the tail end of ESPN...Fab Melo ineligible.
    Let me find the link.

    Not much info now but here's the link:
    http://espn.go.com/mens-college-bask...igible-tourney

    Now if only they'd find the entire Kentucky team to be ineligible.

    Just saw that. Yet another reason I am annoyed that Duke isn't in the East Region instead of Ohio State.

    Yep, pretty much peeves me too! I said all day on Sunday that we were a lock for the 2 seed in the East.
    Oh well, I'll enjoy the ride regardless! GO DUKE!

    The committee presumably would have regarded Melo's eligibility to be a fun fact worth knowing - unless Melo failed some sort of test since Sunday afternoon hard to believe this is breaking news to Syracuse

    I wonder if they knew this little fun fact if they would have changed their seeding, though?
    Syracuse and Kentucky were pretty much a lock for the 1/2 seeds.

    Is it just me, or are we seeing a lot of this stuff pop up now? Melo was ineligible earlier in the year, Reggie Johnson was out for a game, Durand Scott...those are just the ones off of the top of my head.

    Wonder why this is becoming a "trend"? Is the NCAA finally cracking down?
