Compare them to Minnesota. Notre Dame(should) have come into the conference tournaments as an 11 or 12 seed, and Minnesota presumably came in about nine spots out. Then they both come up with two big wins in the conference tournament. What happens?<br /><br />Minnesota jumps about 10 bubble or worse teams and lands on an 11 seed.<br /><br />Notre Dame jumps about 20 bubble, weak tournament, and decent tournament teams, and lands on a 6 seed.<br /><br />(Just to be clear, I'm absolutely not saying that the mistake here was the Minnesota seeding, but the Notre Dame one)<br /><br />Insane.Samnoreply@blogger.com
