No team that makes it to the Regionals is overseeded.

And although Arkansas lost big in its third game, the Hogs made it that far by beating a team that some thought should have been the no. 1 overall seed.

I understand that we all felt Vanderbilt should have been selected, but there is no need to criticize the other teams.

Yeah both teams made it to sweet 16. Hard to argue with that. We’d trade places in a heartbeat.

UT should have probably been a 5 rather than a 4, but Arkansas & Texas AM were way UNDERseeded.

Not sure why the vitriol.

Tennessee was overseeded. They lost to a 9 seed. They weren’t that good. 11-7 in the SEC.

And Arkansas is an embarrassment in more ways than one. Their behavior this year at Memorial was trash-like and should be condemned by all right-thinking people.

I would never trade places with Tennessee and Arkansas.

Texas A&M was definitely way underseeded. Supports my comment on Tennessee being overseeded. Bad job by the selection committee. Pitiful.
