Palm disagrees with Lunardi

[SilentsAreGolden]

He has UK, UVA, Villanova and Wisconsin as 1s. He also has Gonzaga as our #2.

I have to believe Lunardi is just waiting to see if Wisconsin actually wins the B1G

His #1 seeds strike me as correct right now. Remember, Lunardi is an espn (ACC) employee.

I just don't buy that. I hate Duke, but hey have comparable resumes to both Wisc and UVA, probably better resumes. They also best both at their places. I just don't see how Duke isn't a 1.

Second, if Lunardi is wrong, how does that help him or ESPN?

Lunardi get a vast majority of teams correctly into the tournament.
but he's the Aquaman of correctly picking seeds and placement.

Hey the few times that the Legion of Doom was actual in the ocean Aquaman was a HUGE asset. He may smell like fish but that's no reason to compare him to a guy that looks like he's wearing a fish on his forehead.

You have a better chance of winning the Powerball Lottery twice than correctly predicting the correct seeding and placement of a 68 team field.

If Wisconsin wins their tournament I can't see how they are not a 1 sead. Duke won neither and yes they had some great wins, but also some bad losses.

But, isn't it true the seeds are locked in after Saturday games. Example: UK did not get a bump for winning SEC tournament back in 2011 when we beat Florida. We received a 4 and Florida received a 2.

That's because Florida had a better overall resume than UK.

I always thought the overall #1 seed was supposed to have the easiest bracket,IE the weakest 2 seed,weakest 3 and so on.
Gonzaga IMO is no way the weakest 2 seed if that's how it falls...
