Updated seed list - based on games played on March 9

Lots of important games yesterday.  Biggest changes to the seed list are:

  • Kansas moving up to the top overall seed after posting a 16th win against Q1 teams.  Pretty difficult to see how they don't keep this even if they don't win their conference tournament.
  • Nevada dropping down from a should be in to just above the cut line on the bubble.  They likely only need to win last night to put them in the locks group, but not they will might have a long wait on Sunday evening.
  • Oklahoma St. and Michigan moving to the bottom of the bubble list after getting their 15th loss.  Probably should come right off the list after hitting that magic number, but if bubble teams keep losing, you never know.
  • Penn St. moves on to the good side of the bubble list with a quality win last night after Oklahoma St. took itself out of contention.
