Joey Brackets is out with his predictions for next year (April 7,2016). He has Gonzaga seeded 5th in MidWest. No 1's are Villanova, Virginia, Kentucky and North Carolina. #2's are Duke, Maryland, Iowa St., and Indiana. Arizona is a 3 seed in the West. If we take UCLA and Arizona at home things will certainly change.

I am not aware of any such rule, although they seem to try to avoid it. In 2004, I know that #3 Pitt had to face #6 Wisconsin in Milwaukee in the second round. There was a lot of griping about that, but the committee did it anyway. Fortunately for Pitt, they survived the game:

You KNow? I kind of like the seeding, especially since it's so early. It takes the pressure off of the Zags and perhaps puts a little chip on their shoulder and will encourage them to work really hard this summer.Go Zags!!! The Best Is Yet To Come!!!

He felt his team was compromised before the 2004-05 game against the Zags, that the opponent awaiting him and beating him 99-87 in Spokane seemed a little too well prepared."

We always start the season underrated. If I remember correctly, even with people talking about us as Final Four contenders this year, we still started out as 4-6 seeds in the early bracketology predictions.
So, no need to worry. All we gotta do is get in. If the young backcourt improves throughout the year, we'll be dangerous no matter what our seed.

That's just the last 10 seasons or so.
This time around, though, I just don't think people realize how good Jenks could be. I saw EMC tweet about Jenks playing pick-up ball the other day. That's gotta be a good sign.

What in the world does Joey Brackets gain by doing this so insanely early? I can understand the "way too early" top 25 lists, but guessing at the field? Still a lot of underclassmen weighing decisions to go pro or stay in school, plus a whole lot of impact freshmen haven't announced where they are going yet. Not to mention every year players and teams come from nowhere to make big impacts. This is beyond pointless.
