| I assume this is what the team will look like. |
My first thoughts were that Gonzaga got screwed with such a low seed. I thought they should have been seeded somewhere between 7 and 9 and no greater than a 10. 11 seemed way too low. After some thought I felt bad for St John's. This was a team that was talked about as a possible 4 seed now seeded at 6 playing an underrated 11 seed in Gonzaga. They also have to travel all the way to Denver, Colorado and play at 9:45 New York time. They are the ones who got royally screwed. Even though the committee disrespected Gonzaga with that low seed they really did us a favor. St. John's best all around player (arguably), DJ Kennedy, just busted his knee and won't play. Their post players are all 6'8" and shorter giving Gonzaga at least a 4" height advantage down low. It's not going to be easy, but Gonzaga will advance to the next round and play future WCC opponent BYU.
