Do you prefer to play the underachieving high-major program or the strong mid-major that doesn't have the high end talent?
In other words, would you prefer Loyola (Chi) or Duke in round two?
I know the NCAA says it blindly seeds the teams and doesn't consider attractiveness of the matchup, but if Duke makes the tournament, would it shock anyone to set up Duke to play Michigan in round 2 so we can get the Duke vs Juwan Howard angle. Or that we see a potential rematch of Loyola and Michigan in round 2?
All things equal, I'd prefer Duke. They're terrible on defense and they can't match up with our frontline as well and they're no threat to get Hunter in foul trouble.
The argument against Duke is they shoot a ton of threes, and if they get hot in one game, they could win. Loyola struggles to score and would likely struggle to get to 60 points.
