Maryland and MSU both got screwed, whereas Wisconsin and Indiana got very favorable seedings. I thought Arizona should have been the final 1 seed and Indiana should have been playing in one of the 11 seed Round 1 games.

Other bizarre seeding decisions included UCLA, Xavier, and Louisville (all too high) and SMU and Wichita St. (too low).
