You don’t need me to tell you that Kentucky’s NCAA Tournament resume looks rough with six games left in the regular season. After back-to-back losses to Arkansas and Georgia, Kentucky’s chances of making the Big Dance dropped over 25% in the computer models. TeamRankings.com has the Cats’ chances of getting a bid at 50.3%. BartTorvik goes lower at 39.1%.
Kentucky is now among the “First Four Out” in most NCAA Tournament projections. The Cats’ average seed on BracketMatrix, which compiles all the Bracketologies on the interwebs, is 10.90. With 26 days until Selection Sunday, Kentucky appears in 61 of the 100 projected brackets on the internet.
