    Seeding:

    I don't think this necessarily drops us to an 8 - I think that we could still be a seven - yes, Portland is out, but I am not sure we were ever really in the running. I think our RPI will keep us at a seven, though I wanted a 6.

      7 is just as bad, IMO. Any 2 seed blows us out by 20+.

        9 tops. We might have gotten a 6 if we won tonight.

          I can't see the Zags landing in the 8/9 game. RPI is going to be too high. My best guess: 7. I think a win couldn've gotten them a 5. I just can't see them dropping 3 seeds lines based on a loss to a sure fire NCAA tournament team.

            8 or 9.........

            early morning game back east, #1 waiting in the second round.

            Ouch.

            SMC gets our 6 seed in Portland.

            Ouch.

            Go ZAGS

                I really don't see us dropping to an 8 seed. We lost in our conference championship game by 4, in overtime, to the #18 team in the country (according to the coaches). Lunardi had us as a 6 seed prior to the game. Also have to take into consideration teams like San Diego State, Vanderbilt, Notre Dame, New Mexico, Temple, Louisville... losses by any of these teams early in their conference tournaments could have a pretty big effect on where Gonzaga is seeded.

                  I also wouldn't pay much attention to Lunardi's projections tomorrow morning. A lot will depend on how the BCS tournaments turn out.

                    Obviously it all depends how the big boy conferences play out... but I see us as a 6 seed... no where close to home

                      I say a 6 seed, just look at the facts and forget about the opinions, especially Lunardi. Consider:

                      - 10 loss Vandy team as a 6 seed.
                      - Louisville as a 5 seed, 10-8 in conf, lost 4 of their last six and best win of the year....against a 10 loss Vandy.
                      - Good old Notre Dame. 10 losses overall, played five tough/decent non-conf opponents and got destroyed in all (GU, Mizzou, Georgia, Indiana, Maryland)

                      Lunardi is frankly overhyping the Big East once again. We stack up pretty well and SHOULD get a six seed.

                        I still think our guys will get a 7. I'd much rather have that than the 8-9, but I agree that our guys will be outmatched by a 1 or 2 in the second round. However, if they shoot like they did against BYU, they just MIGHT pull off an upset against one of the likely 2s. They will get run out of the gym against KY or Cuse.

                            Post-game RPI is 22, essentially unchanged from pre-tournament. I don't think we'll drop much after an OT loss. Lots of basketball to be played yet by other teams.

                              I'd like another shot at Michigan State, if they get a #2
