I will send out my final brackets in a few minutes, but here is the final seed list for my NCAA Bracket Projection. As you can see, I have two different contingencies in place. The last 11 seed will be given to the winner of the Wichita State/USF game, and the last two seed will be given to Purdue if they end up as Big Ten tournament champions. Otherwise, the last # 2 seed will go to Michgan State. The teams below are displayed below on an S-curve, so they are ranked from left to right within each seeding line. Teams in bold have earned automatic bids to this year’s NCAA tournament by virtue of winning their respective conference tournament. Feel free to comment or debate.
