Says the guy who has run from one question for three days. That guy makes the same mistakes you do. That’s why both of you are a match made in heaven. One glance at his rant led me to Coppin State, which blew up everything. Like Auburn. Too easy.

Says the guy who keeps saying he's "done" while ignoring the same Auburn question.

That's what happens when I present a baseball question and you can't answer it. Don't say that I didn't try to stay on topic. Bye.

Again, I put him on ignore, because he's an idiot and our back and forth was affecting the board, so I have no idea what he said. I think that was supported by @IndayArtHauz Similarly, your insults are causing the same thing. You keep coming at me personally, when I've asked several times for...

I have 30 examples of teams being placed because of convenience over seeding. You keep talking about the same regional, and your two main points were both wrong. I can take the insults, since I'm in your head and it's funny, but if you really want to discuss this, tell me about the Auburn region.

If everyone thought that way, you wouldn't keep posting the same blurb over and over. Any thoughts on Auburn getting the easiest regional, since the committee seeded the field?

No matter how many times you post it, this isn’t evidence that there was any seeding done past number 16.

There still isn’t any evidence that any seeding was done after 16. There just isn’t. You can keep chanting “Notre Dame” while pairing conference opponents together if you want, but there is overwhelming evidence that it played out exactly as it always does. Will you concede your two newly found...

Another blunder. If there was true seeding, the #16 team would have been paired with the WORST #3 seed, not the strongest. True seeding would be #16 (worst #1), #17 (best #2), #48 (worst #3), #49 (best #4). You don't punish #17 by giving them a tougher first game than #32 gets.

I'm so angry at myself for not catching this before. You made another blunder. My fault for not calling you out sooner. Texas Tech could not have been sent to College Station. TCU is there. TCU is closer. The only other host sites somewhat close were Stillwater and Austin. Couldn't go there...

Shrug. There isn’t. They don’t just seed Notre Dame outside of the top 16. Either they seed the field or they don’t. How you can look at Notre Dame and claim that they seed past #16…..while ignoring the Auburn region…..is bizarre to say the least. More memes would really be strong evidence.

When someone correctly points out that geography is what matters, it’s usually understood that geography can’t be used 100%. I mean, if none of the mid-majors in Florida can get into the tournament, then geography can’t matter for the Coral Gables Region. So they stick someone like Ole Miss here...

Why does Auburn (#14) have one of the worst 2-seeds AND one of the worst 3-seeds if the focus was on “competitive balance”?

As usual, someone makes it about me. I must make really great points, because people usually abandon the argument to make fun of my previous screen names. If you knew that Louisville and Notre Dame couldn’t be in the same regional, you would not have specifically written Louisville as an option...

I just want to clarify something before the next lesson. Are you going on record saying that competitive balance was the first priority, and then geography was used only if teams were equal? That's your position?

Again, you found one example where the committee might have placed someone on purpose. And you think we have an easier regional at #6 than if we were at #8. But you refuse to acknowledge something like the #14 team getting #48 as their #2 seed and one of the last four teams in as their #3 seed...

At least he can laugh about it (y)

Teams from the same conference cannot be placed in the same regional. You know, I'm a big boy and don't mind being called out if I'm wrong, but this isn't one of those times. When you get the basics figured out - like two ACC teams not being put in the same regional - you'll be closer to...

I know you were excited to post that, so I hate raining on your parade, but there are more examples supporting my point than yours. Tennessee got three teams from the south, all a bus ride away. Coincidence? UNC - two of three teams a bus ride away. Texas - two of three teams a bus ride away...

To clarify the beliefs of the board, the ACC Tournament matters when it comes to seeding, but it is not an indicator of success or failure in the real postseason. Mississippi State and Duke proved that last year.
