Duke or Kansas? Which team has the best shot at being an NCAA No. 1 seed? | News & Observer

If Selection Sunday were today, Duke would likely be a No. 2 seed in the NCAA tournament, according to Joe Lunardi's Bracketology.

Kansas would have been a No. 1 seed.

The fifth-ranked Blue Devils finished the regular season 25-6 and 13-5 in the ACC, which was second in the conference standings behind No. 1 Virginia.

So does Duke still have a shot at a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament?

It appears so.

No. 5 Duke is No. 4 in RPI rankings. RPI (ratings percentage index) is a quantity used to measure sports teams based on their wins, losses and strength of schedule.
