Using the system described two posts above, and applying the Committee historic decision patterns, here are pre-season projected NCAA Tournament seeds and at large selections. As the season progresses and I substitute actual game results for projected results, the seed and at large selection projections will become increasingly realistic. For now, however, take them with a big grain of salt.
Below the table, I will set out potential additional seeds and selections.
Key:
1 #1 Seed
2 #2 Seed
3 #3 Seed
4 #4 Seed
5 Unseeded Automatic Qualifier
6 Unseeded At Large Selection
