| 8 |  Illinois | Winning at Wisconsin does wonders for their résumé. |
| 9 |  Florida State | The 'Noles need to win at Virginia this week. |
| at Spokane | ||
| 5 |  Temple | Bounced back nicely from their Richmond loss by crushing URI. |
| 12 |  Mississippi State | Season sweep of Mississippi will help them down the road. |
| 4 |  Gonzaga | Saint Mary's was no match for the 'Zags in Spokane. |
| 13 |  Oakland | The Grizzlies should finish 17-1 in the Summit. |
| at New Orleans | ||
| 3 |  Wake Forest | The Demon Deacons are the best team no one talks about. |
| 14 |  Charleston | Home loss to The Citadel certainly wasn't expected. |

SALT LAKE CITY REGION
| Seed | Team | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| at Buffalo | ||
| 1 |  Syracuse | Hard to believe they've lost five straight to Louisville. |
| 16 |  Belmont | An auto bid would be Belmont's fourth in five years. |
| 8 |  Georgia Tech | Despite a lot of big wins, a 5-6 ACC record is troubling. |
| 9 |  UTEP | The Miners have established themselves as C-USA's best. |
| at San Jose | ||
| 5 |  Butler | A three-win week keeps the Bulldogs a top-five seed. |
| 12 |  Oklahoma State | Big road win over Oklahoma keeps the Cowboys in the field. |
| 4 |  New Mexico | The Lobos opened some eyes with a double-digit win at UNLV. |
| 13 |  Mississippi | Another loss this week, and the Rebels' bubble is burst. |
| at Buffalo | ||

| 14 |  Kent State | The Golden Flashes are now tied with Akron atop the MAC East. |
| 6 |  Tennessee | The Vols still have no good SEC road wins. |
| 11 |  Rhode Island | Nice RPI, but not too many good wins on the Rams' résumé. |
| at Oklahoma City | ||
| 7 |  Northern Iowa | The loss at Bradley doesn't hurt their at-large chances too much. |

| 15 |  Sam Houston | The Bearkats could very well go unbeaten in the Southland. |
HOUSTON REGION
| Seed | Team | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| at Jacksonville | ||
| 1 |  Kentucky | Wall was great, but Bledsoe was the difference vs. the Vols. |
| 16 |  Lehigh/ Jackson State | Fun fact: Lehigh lost the play-in game to Florida A&M back in 2004. |
| 8 |  Clemson | The win over FSU may have gotten the Tigers back on track. |
| 9 |  California | A sweep of the Oregon schools would be huge for its at-large hopes. |
| at San Jose | ||
| 5 |  Texas | The Longhorns are the most schizophrenic team in the country. |
| 12 |  Siena | The Saints were due to lose a MAAC game at some point. |

| 6 |  Texas A&M | The Aggies are the hottest Big 12 team not named Kansas. |
| 11 |  Old Dominion | Does anyone want to win the Colonial? |
| at Jacksonville | ||
| 7 |  Richmond | The streaking Spiders enter this week on top of the A-10. |
| 10 |  Louisville | The win at 'Cuse cancels out the head-scratcher vs. St. John's. |

| 1 |  Kansas | The clear front-runner for this year's top overall seed. |
| 16 |  Middle Tennessee State | The Sun Belt is as wide open as it's been in years. |
| 8 |  UNLV | A two-loss week is tough, but they have an easy slate left. |
| 9 |  Maryland | The Terps have a huge three-game week to handle. |
| at New Orleans | ||
| 5 |  Pittsburgh | Triple OT win over WVU was the game of the year so far. |
