Illinois lost at home to Ohio State. Not a bad loss but they are firmly in the hunt for a 3 seed. They missed out on a strong possible win.
UCLA lost on the road to Oregon. Oregon is solid but would have helped UCLA who is currently on that 4 seed line trying to close to a 3 seed.
I am not sure Tennessee will be able to get to the 2 line. They will need some help and obviously have to get Auburn and Arkansas who is closing strong making that a great win. The top 5 seeds are secured IMO (Gonzaga, Arizona, Auburn, Kansas, Kentucky). Next group is (Purdue, Baylor and Duke) those two groups are mostly making up Seeds 1 and 2. Will need help with that last group with one of those teams losing a couple games down the stretch.
The 3/4 seed group trying to climb to a 2 seed is Tennessee, Texas Tech, Nova, Illinois and Wisconsin.
