I cannot believe that Tennessee gets included in the top photo. Four 1 seeds and a 5 seed?
This is good from the second link (except that UConn is 7-0, not 6-0)
UConn (6-0), which is No. 1 in the NET, is the No. 2 overall seed in Bracketology. The Huskies' schedule has suffered plenty because of COVID-19 -- games against Louisville and Baylor were canceled -- and there is a perception that the level of competition UConn has faced hasn't been No. 1 seed-caliber. That perception just isn't true.
The average NET rating of the teams UConn has beaten is 108. That's better than all but three other teams in the top 10. (That number is 104 for Louisville, the fourth No. 1 seed this week.) UConn, which also ranks second nationally in points per possession offense and third on defense, has played a commensurate schedule to any of the other highly rated teams in the country and deserves to be a No. 1 seed.

Yes Tennessee is a grifter problem child, but they'll surely be included in my forthcoming Up SCHITT's CREEK Upset Schools if that's any consolation.....

Okay, we all know there will be A LOT of changes in these brackets, but some of them are kind if interesting....
South Carolina-Baylor is a game I would even pay to watch. In that same bracket, DePaul vs. USF would break my heart, because I like them both when they are not playing us. UConn vs. Arizona could be a very interesting match up. Louisville-Maryland is a gift for Jeff, not so much for Brender. Stanford- NC State could be the most interesting match up of all.

Another interesting thing about the weekly DI WCBB Rankings is Maryland moving up from # 9 last week to # 7 this week??? They were lucky in that they BARELY beat Massey # 95 Wisconsin and defeated # 100 Minnesota by 17 points! Because teams ranked above them lost, they rose in the poll??? Coach Frese is probably hosting a cupcake party as I type this.... www.masseyratings.com/cbw2021/4474www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/rankings/_/week/8/year/2021/seasontype/2www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/rankings/_/week/9/year/2021/seasontype/2
