so far what he's posted on Twitter. Says they should be released today. I'm guessing the Purdue matchup has been reported by someone but I have run across it yet.

It also tells me that the organizers of the event rate Purdue more highly than do others. The most recent Bracketology, for instance (if I remember aright), places Louisville at a two-seed and Purdue on the seven-line. Minnesota, on the other hand, is a four in the bracket, but here they're matched up with Miami (a very solid team, but not on par with Louisville...again, if I'm remembering correctly).
 
Ouch. I feel bad for Rutgers. Kinda throws the "The selections are somewhat based upon previous year's standings" concept out the window.

Great draw for Purdue. Can't complain about a chance to knock off a top 5 Louisville team predicted to win ACC in Mackey.

A little surprised IU gets Duke, since many are projecting a middle of the pack finish for IU. This is a great chance for the Hoosiers to steal a resume win against a talented, but young Duke team (led by emotionally unstable SR) playing in their first tough road environment.

Also, FSU-Rutgers seems way off. I know they try to alternate home and away every year and also not pair teams playing in same non-conforming tourneys, but I would rather see more equal matchups every year instead.
