I'd prefer an 11........gives us a 6 in the first round and a 3 in the second/

joe lunardi just updated his bracketography at espn.com... he has the bison as a 9 playing oklahoma in the first round. and the best part... in philly! it would be great if we could get a first round game there.

anyway, i think worrying about getting an 11 over a 10 or 9 is pretty stupid. sure, getting to the sweet 16 would be great. but i would much rather put the team in the best possible position to win a first round game, in which they will likely be underdogs, than put them up against a better team because the NEXT game might be a bit easier.

Beg to differ........The 1's and the 2's are tough, 3's not quite as much, but the 4's and above are always vulnerable and often not properly seeded.

Thus, let's play a 5 or 6 and avoid the sure doom of the 1 in the second round.

Also, winning another first round game is great but let's shoot for the Sweet 16. Anything less is complacency.
