Last Four In: Auburn, LSU, Dallas Baptist, Villanova
First Four Out: Clemson, St. John’s, Washington State, Virginia
Vanderbilt continues to dominate as they hold on to the top spot. LSU takes a hard fall this year as they barely make the field in the latest projection. The SEC controls the top four National Seeds. TCU, Texas Tech, Oklahoma State, and Texas continue to vie for control of the Big 12 with Texas Tech our projected auto-bid this week. The Pac-12 is up for grabs. Oregon State is the favorite for now. A couple of Big Ten teams on the outside looking in. The 44-conference game schedule only hurts their resumes in some aspects as this keeps them on the outside, but maybe a couple can get in with some help.
