FSU basketball continues to rise in latest NCAA Tournament projections

As the season comes to a close, programs across the country are battling for wins in their final games, looking for any chance to bolster their tournament resumes before Selection Sunday. After a less-than-stellar, yet much needed 88-75 victory against Pittsburgh on Sunday, head coach Leonard Hamilton’s team appears to be in good shape heading into its final stretch of play.

In the latest edition of Joe Lunardi’s bracketology, the now No. 25 ranked Seminoles are projected to be a 6-seed in the tournament’s Midwest region. Up from an 8-seed on Monday’s edition, the ESPN analyst has Florida State pitted against 11-seed Middle Tennessee in Dallas for the opening round of play.
