Bracketology 1/11/20

A busy week leads to changes up and down the seed list. Ohio State is falling after a 1-3 start in Big Ten play- the Buckeyes were on the 1 line a few weeks ago, and their win over North Carolina has lost a lot of luster. The Big Ten is looking more and more like Michigan State's conference to lose.

Speaking of the Big Ten, as of right now they have 9 teams in the field and the first 3 teams out of the field as well. They could challenge the Big East's record for 11 teams in the tournament. A lot of these teams are going to end up with a lot of losses- the record for an at-large is 15, but both teams who made it with 15 losses (2017 Vanderbilt and 2018 Alabama) did so comfortably.

1: Kansas, Duke, Gonzaga, Butler
2: San Diego State, Baylor, Auburn, Michigan State
3: Oregon, Ohio State, Maryland, West Virginia
4: Louisville, Florida State, Dayton, Wichita State
5: Villanova, Seton Hall, Kentucky, Michigan
6: Penn State, Arizona, Texas Tech, Stanford
7: Houston, Colorado, Creighton, Iowa
8: Memphis, Arkansas, LSU, Florida
9: BYU, Rutgers, Marquette, St. Mary's
10: Virginia, Xavier, Indiana, VCU
11: Tennessee, Wisconsin, (NC State/Georgetown), (Oklahoma/USC)
12: Liberty, Northern Iowa, Furman, Yale
13: Louisiana Tech, Akron, Vermont, Stephen F. Austin
14: Georgia State, Colgate, Belmont, New Mexico State
15: Charleston, Rider, Wright State, UC Irvine
16: Northern Colorado, St. Francis PA, (Prairie View A&M/North Dakota State), (Radford/Bethune Cookman)

First Four Out: Minnesota, Purdue, Illinois, Texas
Next Four Out: Richmond, Georgia, Washington, DePaul
