On March 11th, over 300 teams will gather around their television sets with hopes and dreams that their name is called. Realistically only less than 100 teams truly have a chance of being called and only 68 teams will have their hopes and dreams turned to realities.
Sunday morning, the selection committee released their top 16 seeds. There were a plethora of surprises especially in the Big 12. The main thing people need to remember is the AP poll has zero influence on the brackets whatsoever. Which explains why Texas Tech is ranked seventh (soon to be sixth or higher) while the committee still has the team 10th and as a 3rd seed.
