Andy Glockner of SportsIllustrated has VCU as a 7-seed (at-large) playing 10-seed St. Mary's of the WCC in Providence in the first-round.

William and Mary gets the auto-bid and is a 12-seed playing 5-seed Mississippi in Spokane.

W&M is kinda getting shafted in the seeding on most of these things, but it it good to see VCU being penciled in and seeded so high. Let's hope it pans out.
 
Agreed. W&M has the kind of team that can certainly win a game in the NCAA's if the matchup is right. There are few teams that play as fundamentally sound basketball as the Tribe.

I'm thinking more like 4th or 5th seed with the autobid.

Haha now that would be something wouldn't it? I doubt the CAA has ever had a seed that high, barring the David Robinson years at Navy. The Dub with the 9-seed in 2006 is the highest I recall a CAA team being seeded.
 
We talk a lot about the two seed, but I believe we were also a 5 and a 7 before.
 
man'o'man... .. a 7 seed would be a dream scenario. just keep winning.
 
Painfully obvious comment of the morning, but I keep thinking it anyway: I know no one thinks it will happen, but I'd love to see VCU and W&M tied for first with records of 17-1 going into the tournament.
