I don't really have any complaints. Anyone else have an opinion?

Yes

But not about UCLA’s position. I don’t understand how Arizona State is only a 5 seed. They are 21-5 with two wins over Arizona and UCLA (and some other good ones as well). To put the Pac-10 co-leader outside the top 4 seed lines is a disgrace.

Meanwhile, look at the Big 10, which doesn’t seem all that strong to me, and Purdue, its #2 team is on the 4 line despite one more loss, a worse RPI rating than the Sun Devils, and only one victory that is the caliber of ASU’s top wins (Michigan State last week).

ASU is not the co-leader yet ...

still second to UW by 1/2 game, but I agree this seeding is too low, even though it doesn’t surprise me coming from an East Coast biased source. I also think that conference champions should automatically be seeded in their “home” regional.

Yes

Thats what jumped out at me too. I might be wrong, but more often than not I see the Big 10 under perform (compared to the seeding of its teams) in the big dance year in and year out.
