Louisville coach upset with team's low NCAA seeding

The Louisville Cardinals, led by first-year coach Pat Kelsey, have had a surprising season, finishing with a 27-7 record and reaching the ACC Championship game. Kelsey was named ACC Coach of the Year after bringing in 12 new players. Despite their success, the NCAA selection committee gave Louisville an 8-seed, lower than the projected 6-seed. This seeding places them in a potential second-round matchup against the top overall seed, Auburn. Kelsey expressed disappointment with the seeding, feeling it disrespected his team's achievements. The Cardinals are entering the tournament as one of the hottest teams, but their low seed raises concerns about an early exit.
