I haven't been posting these for fear of a jinx situation, but here are the women's NCAA bracket projections I've found:

http://www.espn.com/womens-college-bask ... acketology MSU is #14 seed playing Washington
http://realtimerpi.com/bracketology/bra ... Women.html MSU is #14 seed playing UCLA

Congratulations! Well deserved.

I think I was at that game in Bozeman back in 1993. It's been that l-o-n-g ago?

Unfortunate that the conference has ruined its own tourney. The girls deserved to play in front of the packed house Bozeman would have provided. Despite the embarrassing conference tourney, this was a great accomplishment. Go Cats!!!

Congratulations to the Bobcats for winning the Big Sky tournament. It is a great accomplishment made all the better by being led by a small town Montana girl. Great job to coach Binford, to seniors Peyton Ferris and Riley Nordgaard, and all the rest of the coaches and players.

What seed are we expecting? I will admit to not following women's basketball so where is the Big Sky usually placed? Is the conference a 15-16 seed like the men?


22-0

Sagarin was us at 99.
So we won't get an easy bracket.

I'd say a 14 seed is the most likely - MSU is #63 in the RPI ratings and the Big Sky is ranked 20th of the 32 D-I conferences by the RPI. Wouldn't be surprised to see MSU get a 13 or 15 seed - they definitely should not be a 16 given their body of work.
