The prevailing narrative of this college basketball season so far has been the lack of a dominant team. Even so, Baylor, Gonzaga, Kansas, and San Diego State are beginning to create a bit of separation at the top of the bracket. Those top seeds remain unchanged from last week’s projections, but there is very little separation among the next ten teams, leaving a thin line between the two seeds and some of the four seeds in this week’s field.
Among those teams are ACC front-runners Duke, Florida State, and Louisville, all of whom are not being helped by a league that provides very few chances for quality wins.
