While I'd rather beat the crap out of Minnesota to show that was a road blip, and see how we do against MSU (I think we may be able to beat them, depending on how many 2nd chance points they get on the Offensive glass), losing to Minnesota again might push us back down to the 10 line so we can avoid the dominant 1 seeds a bit longer.
Tho, given Arizona's history of not playing well in the tourney, being an 8/9 in the West and playing them in the 2nd round might not be the worst thing. We don't want to be playing Duke/Florida/UConn in the second round tho.
Michigan is another team I think is going to struggle, after the Cason injury. He was really important for them, especially on nights Cadeau struggled.
