With UVA losing and Duke looking like that could be the case as well. it seems only Nova and UK want 1 seeds . Zona might have one if they can win the Pac 12 but i could easily see them losing tomorrow. the 1 seeds will be a mess if this DUke score stays the same...
Does anyone not named UK or Nova want a 1 seed?

Considering they get Xavier in the finals most likely...I'd say they are a one. UK, Nova and Wisconsin look good...I still feel Duke gets the other if they win tonight.
The argument against them will be they have 4 losses, and did not win the regular season or conference tourney, but the ACC schedule is a joke anyways and if they had got UVA in Durham they probably would have won the regular season. That said, no issue if the committee drops them...in that case you leave UVA on the one line.
I do not consider Arizona due to weak conference and losses to 3 NIT teams (at best).
Have you seen Nova play alot? I thought just like you until about 10 games or so . I have seen them play the last 7 games and they are damn good .a poor man's Duke but with twice the Defense being played. think the one seeds will end up being
Wisconsin , Nova , Uk and Duke ( even though i think Notre Dame beats them )
Nova looked like they wanted a 1 seed today?
I could have swore they beat a fringe mid-major team by 2 points.

I think UVa's loss could hurt them, but not Duke's. Then again who knows. UK is a lock, that's about the only sure bet. I personally think Villanova is to if they win tomorrow. I suspect Duke is as well. The 4th spot could be up for grabs though and I'd say Wisconsin and Arizona are the answer's to your question. Again, just MHO, but I think Arizona is the better team, but Wisconsin probably has the inside track. This is a UK board so a little horse racing analogy seems appropriate because it looks like a close race down the home stretch.
Arizona has 3 losses to terrible teams and plays in an inferior conference. Wisconsin has 1 terrible loss when Kaminsky did not play and 2 losses to top 3 seeds and play in a stronger league. I do not think it is debatable...plus, Arizona as a 2 still stays out west and Wisconsin as the 1 out there balances the regions more.
If you put Arizona as the 1 out west balance is screwed as the fraud Gonzaga will stay out there as the 2 seed.
