I hate Duke, the favoritism they seem to get is crazy. They got the number 1 overall seed, which gives them the easiest route to the championship game. So, I went back to see why they got the number one overall seed, obviously they should not have.
During the season and their conference champonship tournament Duke played 34ngames. They were 32 and 2. Of their 34 games, 11 were against Top 25 teams and they lost 2 of those. So they were 9 and 2 against Top 25 teams. Of their 32 wins, 17 of those were against teams who were not even in the Top 50.
During the season and their conference championship tournament Arizona played 34 games. They were 32 and 2. Of their 34 games, 18 were against Top 25 teams and they lost 2 of those. So they were 16 and 2 against Top 25 teams. Of their 32 wins, 15 of them were against teams not even in the Top 50.
So, of those two teams, who deserved to be a higher seed?
I haven't checked Michigan's overall record yet.
My gripe is that the two best teams in the nation, Michigan and Arizona, will not be playing in the championship game because of Duke favoritism. That sucks once again.
