Last night, the No. 6 Kentucky Wildcats bounced back from a 19-point loss to Tennessee with a road win over the Ole Miss Rebels.
Kentucky added another quality win to their resume, as the Rebels are projected to be an 11 seed in the tournament according to ESPN’s Joe Lunardi’s latest edition of bracketology.
In addition to pegging the Rebels as an 11 seed, Lunardi projected Kentucky as the No. 1 seed in the Midwest region.
Here’s a look at what Kentucky’s projected region would look like according to Lunardi:
- 1 seed - Kentucky Wildcats
This projection comes only a week after Lunardi threatened to move Kentucky from a top spot after a lackluster performance during their win over Arkansas on February 26th.
