Winthrop-Tennessee
Sports Illustrated/CNN
The Vols deserved a No. 2 seed—if
the season had ended in mid-February, when they were 19-3. What was the NCAA
selection committee thinking, handing a two to a team that lost four of its
last six games to finish 21-7? Coach Bruce
Pearl has worked miracles to get this squad where it is—from nowhere to
the top of the SEC East—but
looks like it may have peaked too soon.

George Washington-NC Wilmington
Associated Press
The Colonials (26-2), ranked No. 6 in last week’s AP poll
and the only Division I team with fewer than three losses, received only a No.
8 seed in the NCAA tournament. They beat only one school – A10 tournament
champion Xavier – in the NCAA’s field of 65. Their
non-conference schedule was one of the weakest in the country. They were
thumped 68-53 by
first round of their conference tournament. Center Pops Mensah-Bonsu,
the team’s emotional leader and anchor in the middle, has a knee injury and
might not play Thursday. North Carolina-Wilmington is a patient team that poses
a tough matchup for the Colonials, who like to run the floor and pile up the
points. GW’s only two losses – to
– were against teams that kept the pace slow. The Seahawks often win with
scores in the 60s, although they play more man-to-man instead of zone, which
used to great success.
Nebraska-Hofstra

Hofstra was another N.I.T. pick hoping for an N.C.A.A.
bid. It lost to North Carolina Wilmington in the Colonial Athletic final and
received a No. 3 seeding in the N.I.T. It will open

and beat George Mason, which made the N.C.A.A. tournament,
