| 1 |  |
Connecticut | Perhaps Connecticut’s best chance to lose in the regular season comes in the finale at Louisville. | 1 |
| 2 |  |
Notre Dame | Notre Dame finished up the regular season with a perfect 29-0 record. We won’t look ahead to Uconn quite yet. | 2 |

| 6 |  |
West Virginia | WVU may have to do it again in the Big 12 tournament, but that win over Baylor should put them in #1 seed talk. | 11 |
| 7 |  |
Maryland | Besides the baffling loss at Virginia, the Terps have had a superb season and will be a tough out in the tournies. | 8 |
| 8 |  |

Duke | Until Duke runs into Notre Dame or UNC in the ACC Tourney, they should feel good about their chances. | 7 |
| 13 |  |
Kentucky | With a 10-6 SEC record, Kentucky earned the #4 seed in the conference tournament. Their NCAA seed could be better. | 13 |

| 15 |  |
Purdue | With their quality win over Nebraska on Sunday, Purdue is on a roll heading into the Big Ten Tournament. | 20 |
