#1 Seeds: Kansas, Michigan, Duke, Virginia

#4 Seeds: Buffalo, Indiana, Texas Tech, Florida State
^Based on how I think the committee would vote.
Most combined Q1 & Q2 Wins: Kansas, Houston, Oklahoma - 6
Most Q1 wins: Kansas, Duke, Indiana - 4
Keep an eye of these teams OOC SOS's: NC State(305), Virginia Tech(199), San Francisco(290), St. John's(236), Furman(326), Kentucky(197), Iowa State(191), Iowa(175), Northwestern(206). Whether for selection or seeding, it probably will come into play.
NET Conference Rank:
1. B1G
2. Big 12
3. ACC
4. Big East
5. SEC
6. Pac 12
7. American
8. West Coast
9. MAC
10. So. Con.
Early returns on potential bid "thieves": Keep an eye on the Mtn. West, MAC, WCC, So. Con and OVC. Maybe C-USA, maybe A-10, but I think based on how those teams have performed thus far, they are both looking like AQ conferences this year. Which is surprising given the A-10 history of not only getting multiple teams, but sometimes 3/4 teams.
It will be interesting how closely the committee follows the NET ranking. As of now there are only a couple huge outliers in comparison to where teams are currently ranked in the AP/Coaches. Auburn and Florida State. I understand why Florida State is lower(MOV against Q4 is just 18, knowing that MOV is capped at 10, but still hurts your overall efficiency). And I guess the knock on Auburn is no Q1 wins and a couple questionable wins(UAB, Dayton).
