Duke was #6, Baylor was #9 which means #8 Missouri should have been in Kentucky's region as the 2 seed instead of Duke. As it stands, Kentucky got the second ranked #2 seed, top ranked #3 seed, and third ranked #4 seed in IU in it's bracket. It isn't going to matter because Kentucky is going to Waltz thru its region, Beat Missouri in the Final Four and North Carolina in the Championship Game

What rankings was that? AP/Coaches poll, RPI...........

If it was the AP/Coaches then it must have been last weeks because things look quite different this week. http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/rankings

Dook is the weakest 2 no matter what rankings you use, plus there are questions about Ryan Kellys health.


Mizzou is the team that got the biggest shaft if you look at where they are ranked because that West bracket is a beast.

I would rank the brackets from toughest to easiest as:

1. West

2. East

3. South

4. Midwest
