With just over two weeks until Selection Sunday, Kentucky is now a three-seed in all of the major NCAA Tournament projections.
That’s right, even Joe Lunardi has the Cats as a three-seed in his latest Bracketology, playing in a loaded Midwest Region.
Lunardi’s ESPN colleague Keith Lipscomb argues that Kentucky can still move up to a two-seed before all is said and done, which historically, increases their chances of winning it all.
As a 2-seed, the good news is [John Calipari’s] teams have made the Sweet 16 each of the past five times, and reached the Elite Eight four of the past five times.
