While the top seed line of today’s projection is exactly the same as Tuesday’s, there was plenty of shuffling on lines two through four.
- Alabama, dominating the SEC, is now the second No. 2 seed (behind Texas), following Tuesday’s emphatic 105-75 victory at LSU.
- Iowa and Tennessee remain on seed line No. 2, but slipped a bit following their respective losses to Indiana and Florida. The Hoosiers and Gators, meanwhile, earned some breathing room after their victories.
- The No. 3 line features three new names, with Houston (down from a two), Kansas, and Virginia Tech (up from fours) joining Wisconsin.
