Eugene:

1. Oregon (Pac-12)
16. North Carolina A&T (MEAC)

8. UCF
9. Purdue

Tallahassee:

5. South Carolina
12. Rice (CUSA)

4. Florida State
13. Belmont (OVC)

Last week we shouted out Rice for its dominant run through the early CUSA schedule. The Owls have kept winning since then and are up to a 12 seed. Belmont is also on a tear in its league with eight straight wins, scoring at least 80 points in three straight games. Most recently, the Bruins dropped 100 on a solid Tennessee-Martin team.

Spokane:

6. Michigan State
11. New Mexico (Mountain West)

3. Gonzaga (West Coast)
14. UC Davis (Big West)

Raleigh:

7. California
10. Tennessee

2. NC State
15. Little Rock (Sun Belt)

Life in the Pac-12. California is in the midst of a brutal portion of its schedule, which we covered last week. The Bears split two in a row with Stanford to move up a seed line, but in order to hold their spot, they’ll have to find a way to navigate home games with Oregon and Oregon State this week. All they really need is a split.
