I had the hardest time putting together the 2 line in this update. Duke's loss to Wake Forest makes their path to a 1 seed really difficult, but it's hard to order them compared to the rest of the 2 seeds. I could see an argument for having Dayton over Maryland, or Duke over Florida State. Given the way that San Diego State has been playing recently, it's quite possible that one of these teams jumps up to the 1 line. If Maryland wins out, they might get there even without San Diego State losing.

Relatively few changes on the bubble in this update, Memphis falls further back after their loss to SMU, NC State falls a little bit as well after losing to UNC. Oklahoma looks a bit safer after their win over Texas Tech.
