Last Four In: Minnesota, Colorado, Virginia Tech, Iowa State
First Four Out: Harvard, Princeton, Seton Hall, St. Joseph’s
There has been a slight shift in seeding since the last time we posted our bracket. Maryland stumbled a few times since then and have found themselves as a 5-seed, while USC drops one to a 2-seed and Texas takes their place. There are a lot of Big Ten teams still projected to be in the tournament with 12 total. The bubble is fairly small at this point. There is not a lot of Power-5 teams on the outside seeking to earn an at-large bid to the tournament as part of the Last Four In except those already there. However, those part of the Last Four In could find themselves out after their next loss unless they can find a way to win a lot more than they lose.
