Solid At #3
I don’t see Pitt’s seed changing unless they win the Big East Tournament. Based on various projections I’ve seen, here is my half-assed, amalgamated projection of the top four lines.#1 — Kansas, Kentucky, Syracuse, Duke#2 — WVU, K-State, Ohio St., New Mexico#3 — Villanova, Purdue, Pitt, Wisconsin#4 — Michigan St., Baylor, Tennessee, BYUOthers that could move up the line to #4 or possibly #3 with a big conference tourney: Maryland, Temple, Vandy, Texas A&M and Georgetown.The top two lines look rather solid in my view. Meanwhile a Hummel-less Purdue and oddly unraveling Nova squad seem more precarious at the #3 seed.Even if (god forbid) the team goes out in the quarter-finals, Pitt would still be a #3 seed. MSU seems like the most likely to be able to move up a line given the relative openness of the Big 11’s conference tourney as compared to the SEC and Big 12.I would much prefer to see Pitt keep winning in the BET, but I don’t think Pitt will get much movement from it.
