Women’s Bracketology

[vanmeter]

Charlie Crème, who does bracketology for womens basketball, has us in the tournament as a 13 seed.
I know it’s early but it is showing some respect for what the women have accomplished thus far.

He has us as the winner of the MAC and getting the auto bid. No other MAC teams in the field. The A10 is also a 1 bid league in his bracket.

I posted something similar in the men's forum and decided to check out the women's side.

Warren Nolan and Bart Torvik's sites both predict the women to go 25-3, Nolan has them going 16-2 in conference and Torvik has them going 15-3 in conference. They're off to a great start, but that would be a pretty crazy season. I don't think it will happen and expect them to stumble a few times, but a 20+ win season for them would be outstanding. Probably getting ahead of myself...it's only December.

The next 3 games will be a challenge. All on the road (2 at a neutral site) against pretty good teams with winning records. Army is 6-2, FAU is 5-3 but their losses are to Miami, Florida and a 6-2 South Alabama team. Youngstown State is 5-2 with one of their losses to Michigan State.

I'll take 2 out of 3 and be happy going into conference play at 9-1.

^ Totally. I don't need or expect to go 25-3, I just posted that as a point of interest. I'm pretty sure the Nolan site has them losing the Army game.
