Jerry Palm's updated bracket today (Gophs #12 in Columbus)

[SelectionSunday]

From CollegeRPI.com. ...

Has Gophers as a #12 vs. #5 Louisville in Columbus, one of 9 B1G teams in his current field.

His last 4 in are BYU, Colorado State, Miami-Florida and Seton Hall.

First 4 out are Dayton, Northern Iowa, Ole Miss and Texas.

His #1 seeds are Baylor (West/Phoenix Regional), Kentucky (South/Atlanta Regional), Mizzou (Midwest/St. Louis) and Syracuse (East/Boston).

 

[920/414 Gopher]

I'm sure there are a variety of reasons for it, but it's interesting to me (on the surface) that his four #1 seeds are currently #s 1, 2, 4, and 6 in both polls. I feel like an Ohio State or a UNC could easily be a 1 seed depending on how things pan out. Gotta love this time of year.

Concur. Crunch time (mid-February) leading up to conference tourneys is always a lot of fun & it truly begins next week. Though, for the Gophers, Thursday vs. the Badgers qualifies.
