NCAA tournament Field of 68 projections
No. 1 seeds
Kansas (27-7, 13-5 Big 12)
Resume: Net: 6, KenPom: 8. The Jayhawks piled up an NCAA-best 15 victories in Quad 1 in the regular season, and despite the loss to Texas in the Big 12 championship game still have a claim to be the top seed in the tournament.
*Houston (31-2, 17-1 American)
Resume: Net: 1, KenPom: 1. The Cougars have a compelling case for the No. 1 overall seed, and they are 6-1 against Quad 1 opponents. They are a sound bet for the top seed in the West region.
*Alabama (28-5, 16-2 SEC)
Resume: Net: 2, KenPom: 3. The Crimson Tide have 10-5 in Quad 1, and they have no losses in Quads 2-4. Alabama advanced to the SEC championship with a 72-61 victory against Missouri.
*Purdue (28-5, 15-5 Big Ten)
Resume: Net: 5, KenPom: 6. Purdue or UCLA? The Boilermakers have a 10-4 record against Quad 1, and Zach Edey flexed with 32 points and 14 rebounds in a 80-66 victory against Ohio State in the Big Ten semifinal round.

+Texas (26-8, 12-6 Big 12)
Resume: Net: 9, KenPom: 9. The Longhorns beat Kansas 76-56 in the Big 12 championship game, which ensures their spot on the No. 2 line and makes them a long-shot to get a No. 1 seed.

+Arizona (28-6, 14-6 Pac-12)
Resume: Net: 11, KenPom: 10. Arizona has a case for a No. 1 seed, too, after knocking off the Bruins in the Pac-12 championship. The more likely scenario is both Pac-12 powers play on the No. 2 line.
UCLA (29-5, 18-2 Pac-12)
Resume: Net: 3, KenPom: 2. The Bruins' lost 61-59 in the Pac-12 tournament championship to Arizona, which likely will keep them on this line unless Purdue loses.
+Marquette (28-6, 17-3 Big East)
Resume: Net: 12, KenPom: 12. Marquette should stay on this line after beating Xavier 65-51 in the Big East championship.
No. 3 seeds
+Gonzaga (28-5, 14-2 WCC)
Resume: Net: 7, KenPom: 7. Gonzaga leads the nation with 87.5 points per game and will not have the pressure of being a No. 1 seed. That makes the Bulldogs a dangerous team.
Baylor (22-10, 11-7 Big 12)
Resume: Net: 13, KenPom: 16. Baylor is 15-9 against Quads 1-2. The 78-72 loss to Iowa State does not help, however, will lead to them falling to the No. 3 line.
Kansas State (23-9, 11-7 Big 12)
Resume: Net: 24, KenPom: 23. The Wildcats have nine Quad 1 victories and just one loss in Quads 2-4. That likely will keep them on this line despite Thursday's 80-67 loss to TCU.
Xavier (25-9, 15-5 Big East)
Resume: Net: 19, KenPom: 14. The Musketeers moved up a line after beating Creighton 82-60 and advancing to the Big East championship game. Xavier swept UConn in the regular season.
No. 4 seeds
UConn (25-8, 13-7 Big East)
Resume: Net: 8, KenPom: 4. The Huskies are 17-1 outside of Quad 1, and they fall down a line after losing in the Big East semifinals.
Tennessee (23-10, 11-7 SEC)
Resume: Net: 4, KenPom: 5. The Vols are 10-10 in Quads 1-2, but it has been a gradual slide to a No. 4 seed. A 78-71 loss to Missouri in the SEC quarterfinals did not help.
Duke (26-8, 14-6 ACC)
Resume: Net: 17, KenPom: 24. Duke has won nine straight games, and is in position to climb over another line after beating Virginia 59-49 in the ACC championship game. First-year coach Jon Scheyer has the Blue Devils rolling.
Texas A&M (25-8, 15-3 SEC)
Resume: Net: 20, KenPom: 20. The Aggies have pieced together a phenomenal season in conference play, and they advanced to the SEC championship to face Alabama.
No. 5 seeds
Virginia (25-7, 15-5 ACC)
Resume: Net: 29, KenPom: 34. Virginia is 11-5 in Quads 1-2 after a loss to Duke in the ACC championship game. They will flip lines with the Blue Devils as a result.
Indiana (22-11, 12-8 Big Ten)
Resume: Net: 27, KenPom: 27. The Hoosiers split their last six regular-season games, and they lost 77-73 to Penn State in the Big Ten semifinals.
Miami (25-7, 15-5 ACC)
Resume: Net: 35, KenPom: 39. The ACC regular-season champions have an 10-4 record in Quads 1-2, but the loss to Duke prevents the Hurricanes from moving up. Norchad Omier's ankle injury also is a huge concern moving into the NCAA tournament.
TCU (21-12, 9-9 Big 12)
Resume: Net: 29, KenPom: 25. The Horned Frogs have won four of their last six games before losing to Texas 66-60 in the Big 12 semifinals.
No. 6 seeds
Saint Mary's (26-7, 14-2 WCC)
Resume: Net: 10, KenPom: 11. The Gaels lost 77-51 to Gonzaga in the West Coast Conference championship game, which means they fall to the No. 6 line. Saint Mary's was a No. 5 seed last year with an almost-identical resume.
Creighton (21-12, 14-6 Big East)
Resume: Net: 16, KenPom: 13. The Blue Jays lost to Xavier, but their strong ranking combination keeps them on this line.
+San Diego State (27-6, 15-3 MWC)
Resume: Net: 15, KenPom: 15. It remains to be seen how much the committee will respect the Mountain West Conference, but the Aztecs should stay here after winning the MWC.
Iowa State (19-13, 9-9 Big 12)
Resume: Net: 21, KenPom: 22. The Big 12 strength of schedule is a plus, and the Cyclones opened the Big 12 tournament with a 78-72 victory against Baylor on Thursday.
No. 7 seeds
Kentucky (21-11, 12-6 SEC)
Resume: Net: 26, KenPom: 26. The Wildcats slide down this line after a 80-73 loss to Vanderbilt in the SEC quarterfinals.
Missouri (23-9, 11-7 SEC)
Resume: Net: 42, KenPom: 51. The Tigers have the lowest ranking combination of any SEC team in the field, but an appearance in the SEC semifinals should keep them on this line.
Northwestern (21-11, 12-8 Big Ten)
Resume: Net: 41, KenPom: 41. The Wildcats held a 7-5 record in Quad 1, but they had a quick exit from the Big Ten tournament in a 67-65 loss to Penn State.
Michigan State (19-12, 11-8 Big Ten)
Resume: Net: 33, KenPom: 32. The Spartans have maintained a 6-9 record against Quad 1, but a 68-58 loss to Ohio State in the Big Ten tournament is not a good last impression.
No. 8 seeds
+FAU (31-3, 18-2 C-USA)
Resume: Net: 14, KenPom: 29. The Owls beat UAB 78-56 in the Conference-USA tournament, but their ranking will be pulled down by just two Quad 1 victories.
Arkansas (20-13, 8-10 SEC)
Resume: Net: 22, KenPom: 19. The Razorbacks have a 4-10 record against Quad 1 opponents, and their inconsistency keeps them on this line.
Maryland (21-12, 11-9 Big Ten)
Resume: Net: 30, KenPom: 21. The Terps are in, but a late-season fade will keep them in the Big Ten jumble of No. 7 and No. 8 seeds.
Iowa (19-13, 11-9 Big Ten)
Resume: Net: 39, KenPom: 36. Iowa's up-and-down season continued with a 73-69 loss to Ohio State in the Big Ten tournament.

First Four Out
Oklahoma State (18-15, 8-10 Big 12)
Resume: Net: 43, KenPom 38. The Cowboys are right in the mix and have better rankings than the Sun Devils. Does Oklahoma State have too many losses?
Vanderbilt (20-14, 11-7 SEC)
Resume: Net: 79, KenPom 79. The Commodores will be part of the final discussion, but the loss against Texas A&M likely means they fall just short.
Clemson (23-10, 14-6 ACC)
Resume: Net: 57, KenPom 63. The Tigers took advantage of some other bubble losses, but they likely fall short after a 76-56 loss to Virginia in the ACC semifinals.
Nevada (22-10, 12-6 Pac-12)
Resume: Net: 37 KenPom 42. Nevada lost its last three games, and that's going to make it tough for them to stay in ahead of Boise State and Utah State in the Mountain West Conference.
