March is inching closer, and the NCAA Tournament’s madness is on the horizon. As usual during this time of the season, the selection committee has released its top-16 seeds in preparation for the men’s NCAA Tournament. The 16-team reveal is a tradition that began back during the 2016-17 season when the committee’s list featured the Villanova Wildcats as its No.1 overall seed.
The in-season peek isn’t necessarily a ranking of which 16 teams are the most likely to win a national championship. Rather, it serves as an up-to-date look at where each team would likely be seeded if the season were to end at the date of the committee’s release.
