Selection Sunday for the NCAA Tournament is an annual celebration of Quad 1 wins, bad losses, over seeding and who truly should be a Number 1 seed. There’s no doubt in my mind on who the Overall Number 1 Seed is. The mystery is where the remaining 67 fall into the bracket. The Big 12 is the best conference top to bottom and they could see 7 teams in the field. The Big Ten was very competitive and could produce 10 tournament participants. The SEC a could get 6 to 8 teams invited to the Big Dance. The Big East has built solid depth and could get 6 tournament bids. The PAC 12 has 2 of the best squads in America, but the league may only get 3 teams in. USC should be a lock, but Oregon and Arizona State are sitting on the bubble.
