I'll take a 4 seed against St. Joe's #1 right now, no questions asked.
Assuming we get that match up, their guards are no doubt quicker than our
guys, but they have no inside presence whatsoever, and have been out
rebounded all season.  I don't see how they stop Max inside or James
penetrating and if Eric & Kareem come to pay we will dominate the boards.
Assuming that Field &/or Tony hit something from the outside with any sort
of consistency, I think that would be the best #1 match up we can get.  By
the way, I'm not sure UK is a #1 - I think they probably have to win out to
do it - Miss. St., if they win out - will get a #1, and, as matters stand, I
don't see UK getting a #1 over St. Joe's or Stanford (assuming undefeated
seasons), or either Duke/Pitt/OK. St. depending on the results this week.
