Correct...

We use to always say team X needed to win one or two in their conference tourneys. I think the committee has a firm grasp of who they have in before the major conf tourneys. I think the only time they adjust is if team X makes it to the final or wins the whole thing...and I think even making it to the final doesn't affect it if they feel team X is on the outside looking in before the conf tourney.

GreenvilleVT • 02/13/26 11:35 AM ET
They have mock seeding starting on the weekends , yes
Vippie1 • 02/13/26 05:00 PM ET
