FWIW… I’m glad the committee put Arkansas over Vanderbilt! I was initially correct, Vandy was ahead of them in the initial reveal. Vandy would have been ahead of Arkansas if today’s result had been flipped. I didn’t believe the committee would take today’s result into account. They did. Excellent work by the committee.

Arkansas will be the 4 seed in the West region (1 seed Arizona) They will face 13 seed Hawaii in Portland in the Round of 64! They will also be matched up with 5 seed Wisconsin and 12 seed High Point in Portland #WPS
