Creighton is likely preseason 15-20, and St. John's 7-10. We are hovering around 22-28, given our massive roster turnover.

3 games are guaranteed, and all teams with a 2-0 record will advance to the championship bracket. If more than two teams have a 2-0 record, the championship game will be determined by point differential and other statistics.

Are there multiple courts at Park MGM?

Cause those start times don't allow for enough time between games.

I'm sure it was a blind draw and there was no maneuvering to make sure Kansas is in the championship bracket. They just happened to draw the 2 teams expected to not even finish in the top half of the ACC while everyone else plays at least 1 or more Top 30 teams.

Not that preseason polls mean very much but the 5 that I've seen all have St. Johns in the Top 5.

Syracuse and ND haven't even made the tournament that last 4 and 3 years respectively

Appears there are two arenas involved..Park MGM Arena and Michelob Ultra Arena..
