ESPN wrote an article titled “Reseeding the men’s March Madness 2021 field for the round of 32”. So – I was curious who they thought were the teams that should be reseeded.

You ready for this.

The one seeds should be Gonzaga, Illinois, Baylor and Michigan (the current 4 one seeds)

The two seeds should be Alabama, Houston, Iowa and Arkansas (since Ohio St lost – they moved up one of the 3 seeds)

The three seeds should be Kansas, Oklahoma State, West Virginia and Florida State. They corrected their perceived slight of Oklahoma State by switching the order of West Virginia and the Cowboys.

The four seeds are Villanova, Creighton, Colorado and Texas Tech. Basically, all the 5 seeds and the top 6 seed move up in order to fill gaps of teams that have lost.

The five seeds are USC, Florida, LSU, and Oregon. So, the 8 seed LSU jumps 7 seed Oregon.

The six seeds are Loyola-Chicago, Oklahoma, Wisconsin, and Maryland – teams just moving up to fill gaps

The seven seeds are Rutgers, Syracuse, UCLA and Oregon State – teams just moving up

The eight seeds are Ohio, Abilene Christian, Oral Roberts, and North Texas – so they moved both the 14 seed Abilene Christian and 15 seed Oral Roberts over 13 seed North Texas.

So, they flip-flop Oklahoma State and West Virginia. They flip-flop LSU and Oregon. And they move Abilene Christian and Oral Roberts pass North Texas. Which if they left them in their seeded order, they would have been the same seed.

If you are going to write an article reseeding the 32 teams – how about actually reseeding the teams.
