Who Should Be the NCAA Tournament Number One Seeds?

This year in college basketball has been very different than in years passed. The talent is watered down, the teams aren't great and there have been some extremely ugly games. Just because it's been competitive doesn't mean the games have been good. I have just been hoping most games end as opposed to rooting for a winner.

With that being said, who should be the number one seeds in the NCAA tournament? Right now you have to say there are two teams who are a lock for number one seeds and those teams are Indiana and Michigan. After that, it gets a little foggy. Everyone is saying Gonzaga is pretty much set to be a number one seed but I'm not so sure. In passed years the committee has shown a bias towards teams in power conferences. Gonzaga isn't in a power conference. Also, if you look at their strength of schedule, it's not overly impressive.

Duke is an interesting team. They've lost three games and all of them have been on the road. In my book that means they are undefeated. I don't count road losses in college basketball. Kids get rattled easily in hostile environments. In the tournament the crowd is neutral and the kids keep their composure better. What does that mean to me? That means that if Duke beats Miami on Saturday at Cameron Indoor, they are a lock to be a number one seed. I know Miami blew them out but Miami was at home and that was Duke's first loss. The winner of Saturday's game will be the third number one seed.

Then finally I really believe that if Georgetown or Florida makes a run in their conference tournament that will be the last number one seed. Be on the lookout for Kansas as well even though they're stumbling their way to the finish line. A good win in a hostile environment last night and a big run in the Big XII tournament could make them that fourth number one seed.

As you can see right now there are many options for number one seeds. The only locks at the moment are Indiana as the number one overall and Michigan. The last two one seeds will be played out in the coming weeks. Keep watching, it's going to be fun.
