Would a 4 seed in a region other than UCONN be better than a 3 seed in the East?

Hard to know how the brackets will shake out as well as matchups. But sometimes a seed higher creates more challenges than a seed lower. Biggest difference might be that 2nd round game and a potential 1 seed in the Sweet 16.

Heck, Line us up against whomever. Still have to play and beat them to move on. I know like Wich St back years ago hated to see us as a lower seed. We will be what we are.

In 2011 UK got screwed with a 4 seed and it worked out as they matched up well with OSU.

Other than a 3 with Houston I’d agree. East is last region I’d want. Midwest is top choice

Give me the 3 seed. I'd rather wait as long as possible to play the 1 seed. Doing it in the Elite 8 sounds a lot better than needing to do it in the Sweet 16 to me.

A 4 seed sees the 1 seed in the Sweet 16. A 2 or 3 seed wouldn’t see then until the Elite 8.

We will be a 4 seed with Purdue.
