But are they saying SDS is the "5th #1 seed", up against #4 1 seed Duke? I have a hard time buying that. It's again looking like Duke is getting the easy draw (even though by seeding they should have the toughest of the 1's).

State has a VERY favorable potential path to their Region's final.  UCLA, then potentially Florida, then BYU/St. Johns.  They got this based upon their prestige as a tournament team for sure.

The nice thing about living in A2 - you can decide to go to U-M events at the last minute.  I made it to Crisler just in time.  It was fun.  Brandon, Beilein and the captains (Douglass and Novak) gave little speeches after the team was selected.  BTW, the renovations have already begun - many of the upper-deck sections are seatless right now.   Also, the stadium scoreboards are only half-existent right now.
