From the website:

TOUGHEST DRAW

"The ACC tournament champions finished strong and are finally healthy on offense. But despite some favorable RPI and strength of schedule numbers, the Fighting Irish were dealt the number 7 seed and will have to face Denver in the postseason for the third time in four years. Get past the Pioneers and Kevin Corrigan's team could have to go through Albany to reach Foxborough.

Just about any path is going to be challenging, but Notre Dame certainly didn't catch a break with this bracket."

Later in the article under "Grading the Committee"

"While there were some quibbles with how the data was interpreted (with Notre Dame's seeding standing out)..."
