Lunardi's first Bracketology for next season

[X-man]

X comes in as a 3-seed. Here's the link: http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/bracketology. Others of interest include Nova as a 1, Butler an 8, Seton Hall a 10, and Creighton an 11. He also has the cryers as a 9 playing the bearkitties as an 8 for the right to play UK in the second round.

He has Providence as the first team out. Maybe for the CBI. No chance they even come close to sniffing the tourney. My guess is bottom 3 in big east.

The tragic passing of Steve McElvene is going to really hurt UD. It sucks to even mention how his death will effect their program, but he was a legitimate
big man who had a solid freshman year. He set a UD record for blocked shots in a season.

They will have to back to playing small ball, but it hurts their depth, rebounding, and interior defense a lot.

He was a great player that cannot be replaced. But Archie is a hell of a coach and I won't be surprised to see them in the tourney for a 4th straight year.

Doesn't seem to think much of Texas.

He's got Rhody on the 8 line. I thought Rhody may be good enough to make the tournament. He's got them way inside the field, though. That probably means they'll miss it again.

I'm also a little surprised he likes Akron more than Buffalo. I think Buffalo may be good enough to get into the tournament even if they don't win the conference tournament.

UNC Wilmington is another team to watch for. In fact, if we get them as a buy game for one of our two remaining games, I'll be very happy even though I hate most buy games as a rule.
