Based on current top 10, here is how #1 seeds stand:
South Carolina - Lock
Iowa/tOSU - winner of tourney gets it
If Indiana beats Iowa & OSU back to back, the have shot, but doubtful if Holmes injured
Pac10 trio (Stanford/USC/UCLA) winner of tourney gets a #1 seed.
Fourth number 1:
Texas? Can it win Big12
LSU? If it beats South Car, will the voters overlook losses.
Probably not, but…
Va Tech loss & knee injury not good
UCONN has the brand but not quality wins probably
Everyone else has 6 plus losses.
The one wildcard -slumping Colorado. Beating Ore St, Stanford and UCLA/USC winner is a big boost with already beating LSU
Going into the tournaments, it’s a mess for #1 seeds, but also very clear what 6 teams have to do.
Lose, and you are probably #2 or worse.
