The NCAA tournament selection committee gave its first glimpse at how the top 16 teams in the country stack up last weekend. Unsurprisingly, the SEC dominated, earning three of the four No. 1 seeds and five of the top six spots.
Still, there’s plenty of regular-season basketball to play and a pecking order to determine, even within the SEC’s ranks. While some of the one-seeds seem almost set in stone, at least one spot remains open for the taking. That’s what makes each weekly set of games so important, especially this week as a number of top-10 suitors will get the chance to prove their mettle against others vying for the final top spot.
