With less than two weeks until Selection Sunday, there is still plenty of intrigue on the one line. Purdue, UConn and Houston have all but sewn up top seeds, but the Cougars and Huskies are jockeying for the second overall spot while the fourth one seed remains up for grabs.
UConn was second at the selection committee’s reveal a couple of weeks ago and the Huskies are 3-1 since with a loss at Creighton. Houston, meanwhile, is a perfect 5-0 since then and has picked up four more Q1 victories in the process. Both teams are 26-3 with identical 10-3 records in Q1 and 15-3 marks in the top two quadrants.
