Weber State Gets a 15-Seed
It looks like NCAA tournament history — by both Weber and past Big Sky teams (us) — played a factor in the committee's decision on where to seed the Weber State Wildcats.
Many saw Weber as a 16 seed playing 1 seed UCLA; well, these teams will be playing each other but with different seeds. Weber received a 15 seed and UCLA got the 2.
Weber has some bizarre amount of tournament appearances, something like 14; it's pretty crazy for a Big Sky team. As much as I dislike these guys I hope they have a decent showing and help UM out next year when they're looking for a decent seed after going something like 15-1 in conference play.
UPDATE: It looks like they have a shot to not get completely blown out of the water. ESPN's new NCAA frame just stated their two most recent tournament victories came as a 14 seed, with one as recently as the mid-nineties.
