The rest

Gonzaga 29-2 (16-0) #9 RPI. See that RPI? Is it a little low? Yes! Did they beat up on the Big 12? Yes! To the tune of wins against Oklahoma,Oklahoma State and Kansas State. I'm going to assume their fans will count wins against bubbilicious Saint Mary's whose profile consists of beating Creighton LOL. Here's the problem for Gonzaga and HOLDING on to their #1 ranking and a #1 seed. In two days they're done playing while most everyone else continues on for another week and most will be facing better competition. The Bottom Line? I can see Duke,Kansas,the BTT Champ if it's one of {Michigan,MSU,Indiana} and even the BE champ if it's one of {Louisville,G'Town} all pass Gonzaga in not only the rankings,but in seeding. Would not be surprised when the dust clears if it falls according to plan that Gonzaga ends up a #2 seed out West and falls as far as #4 or #5 in the rankings without even playing games next week.

Saint Mary's 26-5 (14-2) #34 RPI. This has to be the biggest joke of a so called "Lock" i've ever seen. A resume that consists of a win that wasn't even originally on their schedule,which is a Creighton home win in Bracketbusters,which is funny since I didn't see Gonzaga playing in it hmm. Conspiracy theories anyone? I'm convinced the only reason Saint Mary's is a lock is because Matthew Primadonna is on the team. As far as I'm concerned they belong in the NIT. Yeah that's right! You lost to Pacific,Georgia Tech and Northern Freaking Iowa.

Memphis 26-4 (15-0) #19 RPI. #19 RPI? For doing what exactly? A Tennessee win that may or may not be valid by this time next Sunday? Because other than that they don't even have a win worth mentioning,but considering playing in C-USA is like playing High School Teams I'll just assume they'll lock up the Auto Bid and the Committee will probably overseed them and they'll lose on day 1.

Creighton 25-7 (13-5) #33 RPI. They beat Wisconsin,Cal and split with Wichita. Played like crap down the stretch and congrats on their double digit seed.

Wichita State 25-7 (12-6) #37 RPI. They beat VCU,Creighton and possibly Iowa while also losing on Senior Night to a horrible team and then coughing up the MVC title at Creighton. Congrats on the double digit seed if you make it at all.
