mikeyvthedonParticipantI like the attempt, but I do not think Nevada would be ranked that low if they make the tournament. I know the WAC is nothing special, but I think Nevada would probably be a bit higher due to their track record as a program. Besides that, I like the attempt for the most part. I think Creighton might be a bit higher. This seems pretty solid for the most part.
You should break it down by conference, as well. I could see a few of these teams falling due to their play in conference. I have a feeling more than 8 Big East teams will make it, despite their non-conference records. Think this is the year Northwestern finally cracks the tourney? They could, Crawford and Shurna are both solid, but I am eager to see if they do well in conference. Think Butler wins their conference? I think they might have some competition from Cleveland State or even Milwaukee, but they certainly could. I like it for the most part though.
These teams might be a bit high: Kansas, UNLV, Michigan, Texas A&M, Florida State, Northwestern (Think they squeeze in, if they make it at all)
These teams might be a little low: Creighton, Wichita State, Nevada (If they make it, they are higher than a 15), West Virginia, San Diego State (That early season schedule helps them big time), St. Louis (I believe in these guys. Think they will do well in A-10 play), Iona (Should dominate the conference, could be a 8 or even higher)

j1232eParticipantThey have a big time player in Lilliard. They should be ranked higher, they are a upset alert time in the first round this year for sure.

providencefriars1ParticipantReally so you would put a team like Belmont or Ohio behind Nevada? I think all of my 14’s have better resumes and have a better squad than Nevada or whoever the WAC representative would be. There certaintly will be a lot of mid major at large bids this year so I dont see Nevada getting higher than a 14
