Who's in? Who's out? Who moved up and down?
The beauty of bracketology is that there are different ways of trying to determine how the NCAA Tournament Committee makes their selections. This means that when the brackets are filled, it is a fresh seeding each time. So that's what happened here and after the games thus far, there have been shifts.
Some notable changes:
- Arizona State is now IN, but they were given an extremely disadvantageous location despite having a "bye".
- Richmond is going to Dayton, the NCAA Tournament Committee likes sending teams that may not necessarily have the best strength of schedule to UD Arena. Richmond has performed well, but their strength of schedule is not impressive.
- Auburn tumbles down to a #9 seed, losing at Georgia and Missouri should result in negative consequences.
- Kentucky moves up to a #6 seed, but they get a worse location.
- Colorado moves up to a #3 seed.
- North Carolina State beating Duke knocked Duke off the #1 seed line and put the Wolfpack into a game with Cincinnati in Dayton.
- Indiana is OUT, they will have opportunities to get back into the field. They are the first team out.
- Stanford is OUT, they will have opportunities to get back into the field.
- Wisconsin moves up to a #7 seed and Purdue is Dayton bound.
