How it's Done:

• Note 1 seeds from the Bracket Preview.
• Re-evaluation of 2-11 by Team Sheets.
• Emphasis on Q1 wins and SOS.
• Bubble consideration for teams with a NET ranking above 70.
• List all current conference leaders and "select" them as the projected winners.
• Conference tournaments take precedent.
• Referencing NET and KenPom, find the lowest ranked automatic bid and place at 68.

First Four Out:

• Cincinnati, NC State, Texas, Arkansas

Notes:

• Only the Seed List will be (continuously) posted until Selection Sunday.  
• If you want to manually "preview" the bracket, do as follows:
1. Assign each section of the bracket by a Quadrant Number (1, 2, 3, 4)
2. Slot each 1 seed by the Seed List matching the QN
3. Slot the top 2 seed into QN 2
4. Slot each remaining 2 seed into 1-3-4 respectively
