If we had done this bracket all at once (rather than working our way up over the course of a month), we agree that Siena would have had a better seed.

We like Purdue too, actually, but this year’s MSU team has the look of a classic Izzo squad to us. We’ll see though (actually we won’t see b/c we don’t get the BTN).

1) Siena will be a better seed- They were a 13 last year, and return all five starters. I expect them to be an 11 when it’s all said and done this season.

2) Another Villanova-Clemson 1st round game would be fun, but this time around the seeds are reversed and there won’t be an upset.

3) I think Purdue will come out on top in the Big 10 over Michigan State. They have the experience and talent to win the Big 10 and get a top seed… but I think they could easily be knocked out early.
