Only 4 SEC and 4 ACC teams are projected as NCAA seeds (bracketmatrix.com)
.
Remarkably, only FSU, Duke, Louisville, and Virginia are currently listed among the ACC teams that are projected to be in the NCAA field.

A 5th ACC team, NC State (NET #55) is projected among first 4 out.


.

# of teams projected in NCAA by conference: (bracketmatrix.com)

Big 12: 6 teams (Texas (19-11) proj 11 seed: NET #59!)

Big 10: 9 teams (Indiana proj 10 seed: NET #54!)

SEC: 4 teams (!)

PAC-12: 6 teams (UCLA (NET #76!) proj. among the first four out)

Big East: 7 teams

American: Houston & WSU are projected as seeded (Cincy among 1st 4 out, Tulsa is projected a potential 12 seed in 32 bracketologies)

Atlantic 10: Dayton & Richmond (NOTE: St. Louis (23-8) has a #57 NET ranking; URI (21-9) has a #56 NET ranking)

WCC: Gonzaga, St. Mary's, & BYU

MWC: SDSU, Utah State

MVC: Northern Iowa (25-6) is projected among the first four out, despite a #37 NET ranking, although UNI could qualify by winning the MVC tournament.

----------------

Total non P5/Big East at-large teams projected in NCAA tournament: 5

On average, since 2016, only 5.25 non P5/Big East teams, per season, have received at-large bids.


Questions and controversies:

1) Why should Indiana (19-11; NET #54) and Texas (19-11; NET #59) be projected as 10 and 11 seeds,
while neither St. Louis (23-8; NET #57) nor URI (21-9; NET #56) are even projected to be among the last four in or first four out)?

2) Why should Arizona State (NET #49) be projected as a 10 seed, ahead of Utah State (NET #38) and Wichita State (NET #45)?

3) Why should UCLA (NET #76) be projected as being #1 among the first four out, ahead of Cincy (NET #53), URI (NET #56); St. Louis (NET #57), Memphis (NET #62)
and dozens of other teams with higher NET rankings?

4) Why shouldn't Northern Iowa (25-6; #37 NET), the top team in the esteemed Missouri Valley Conference, be projected as a probable at-large team, ahead of teams such as Indiana (#54 NET) and Texas (#59 NET)?

Can you just stop making threads about everything you read online?

3 different garbage threads by you to start the day on here. It has gotten out of hand.
