2026 Official Seed Watch List Thread

If you can’t beat Miami Ohio then it is what it is. Virginia is the 3 seed you would want.

It's as favorable a draw as you could hope for

No such thing as an easy draw. This is the best we could've gotten, now it's time to strap it on and play ball...well, it will be later this week anyway.

Gators snag it.

Get Vandy in their bracket…that 8/9 is strong too

VCU could put UNC out…wow

Illinois is also a tough one for Florida. Houston is a stout 2 as well especially with their guard play

 

[hUTch2002]

Congrats @99gator! That is certainly junk about Elite 8 in Houston though.

What did he say at the end - they had to relax their bracketing principles… for what?

 

[Sandman Vol]

Just saw last 10 seasons 11 seeds only under dog seed to have winning record.

Honestly floored that any of the lesser seeds, including the nine seed, have a winning record in the Round of 64.

Can you imagine beating FL this weekend and then your reward is a rematch with them in the S16 lol eeeek

 

[Stoerner Fumbles]

We’ll be a 5-seed.

Receipts checked, as you suggested.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Awww Stevie didn't make it....

 

[AurantiacoFan]

I admit it is not fair at all, but I don't feel sorry for Cal...

I feel arrogantly confident about getting to the sweet 16. After that, anything can happen.

This team is not as good as last year’s, imo, but can beat most anyone on any given day.

For once, I think Duke has the toughest bracket

 

[VolCalls]

Prediction for tomorrow’s top 8:

East - 1. Duke, 2. UConn
Midwest - 1. Michigan 2. Iowa State
West - 1. Arizona, 2. Michigan St.
South - 1. Florida, 2. Houston

Almost nailed it. Purdue winning yesterday swapped them with Mich State.

I like this draw. Let’s make some noise
