UK is now a 5 seed trending up according to Lunardi. UNC is still a 2 despite losing 4 of their last 9, Kansas is a 2 despite losing 3 of their last 6, Wisconsin is a 5 despite losing 5 of 6 and Clemson is a 5 seed despite losing 7 of their last 13. Of the 4 losses for Kansas 3 were to teams with a combined record of 41-35. Of the 3 UNC losses the opponents combined record was 44-33. Of the 5 Wisconsin losses 4 were to teams with a 55-48 record. Of the 7 losses for Clemson 4 of their losses were to teams with a combined record of 57-46.
I guess I said all of that to say there are only a handful of the top seeds that don't have some pretty bad losses. Even Purdue only has 3 losses but the combined record of the teams they lost to is 51-27. I know we haven't had the best season and have lost some game we shouldn't have but if we can play defense and rebound this team can make some noise.
