The NCAA Selection Committee revealed their top 16 seeds for the NCAA Tournament as of today and Kentucky didn’t make the field.
Jerry Palm of CBS Sports and Andy Katz of NCAA .com had Kentucky projected as a 5-seed following the NCAA’s release.
Michigan State was in the top 16 seeds despite having 7 losses (they have 8 after today), including a head-to-head loss against Kentucky.
Here’s a look at the top 16 prior to today’s games, which already included a Michigan State loss and Kentucky win:
