It may be mid-July, but ESPN’s Joe Lunardi is still busy building an updated NCAA tournament projection for 2022.
On Tuesday morning, Lunardi released his latest projection for the 2022 field and included Indiana as a No. 10 seed in the South Region.
In Lunardi’s previous projections, Indiana was a No. 9 seed, so Tuesday’s update was a slight drop for the Hoosiers.
The highest projected Big Ten team is Michigan as the No. 1 seed in the South Region. Other No. 1 seeds in Lunardi’s bracket include Gonzaga (West Region), Kansas (Midwest Region) and UCLA (East Region).
