college basketball

1 Seeds:

Auburn (2-0), Duke (2-0), Houston (2-0), Tennessee (2-0)

2 Seeds:

Florida (1-1), Michigan State (2-0), St. Johns (2-0), Alabama (1-1)

Finally! A shake-up in the top four seeds. Florida lost an easily winnable game against Georgia, moving them down to a two seed. Tennessee’s buzzer-beater against Alabama moves them up to the one seed line. Otherwise, Auburn, Duke, Houston, Michigan State, and St. John’s had great weeks. The field is starting to get finalized, so expect little movement from here on out.

3 Seeds:

Texas Tech (1-1), Wisconsin (1-1), Iowa State (1-1), Michigan (1-1)

4 Seeds:

 Maryland (1-1), Clemson (2-0), Texas A&M (0-2), Purdue (1-0)

The three seed line had little movement, with all four projected teams going 1-1 with no real outliers. Michigan’s buzzer beater against Maryland moves them up even though they lost to Illinois. Clemson is hot, while Texas A&M is in freefall. Purdue finally stopped their skid, notching a solid win against UCLA. If there is any volatility from this grouping going forward, it’ll be from the conference tournaments that start next week.

5 Seeds:

Kentucky (1-1), Mizzou (1-1), Marquette (2-0), St. Marys (2-0)

6 Seeds:

Arizona (1-1), Louisville (2-0), Kansas (1-1), Oregon (1-0)
