Which #1 seed loses first?

IMO, UNC is the most vulnerable with Lawsons injury but they are in the weakest bracket. They could be very likely looking at a run of Radford, Butler, Gonzaga, Oklahoma to reach the Final Four. That's not very daunting for them, Lawson or not.

L'ville is the best team from the best conference with a coach that has an excellent tourney resume.

Pitt and Uconn look the most vulnerable to me. Neither one finished strong and the West (Uconn) is freaking loaded.

Pitt is such a wild card here. If they can keep Blair out of serious foul trouble throughout the Dance, they will likely be the National Champions. OTOH, if Blair picks up 3 quick personals, they could lose to East Tennessee State.

Many top teams are completely dependent upon a star player, but few such players seem so likely to become disqualified on fouls as Blair.

Well, San Diego St. does play tonight... :tongue2:

My heart obviously says Louisville but my head says UConn... they have a tough region.

I think the biggest #1 upset would be North Carolina losing before the Elite 8... they have the easiest path to Indy.
