Who are the Four teams most likely to be chosen as two seeds? This poll assumes that the one seeds ( UConn, UCLA, Scar and Texas) will remain the same.) the choices are the next 10 teams presently ranked by NET.

Make four choices. Poll closes Monday night so we can change based on Vandy and Michigan.

This was my thought process as well but I put in a second Big 10 team (Michigan) over a fourth SEC team. So my choices were TCU, Louisville, LSU and Michigan.

I believe this poll is also assuming that UConn, South Carolina, Texas and UCLA are locked into the 1-seeds.

Im not yet confident that a clear b1g runnerup will emerge.
 
I'm voting: way too soon to project. While the #1s seem to have clearly emerged, there is way too much season left and the picture is far too muddled to figure out who will be #2 seeds.

If you guessed after the season it wouldn’t be much of a challenge. 😂

Live a little NWH! Take a risk!
 
Several games today and tomorrow could cause some rethinks.

I think TCU and Louisville will only deserve two seeds if they dominate their conferences. Can Louisville beat NC State today. Vandy and Michigan tomorrow is going to feature some excellent guards . Oklahoma could make this pol interesting for LSU. Maryland needs to avoid a UCLA blowout.

While doubtful, if Texas slips up again they could move to the 2 seed grouping as well

An interesting question because a team might nor be a 2 seed because they are not good enough, or because they get one of the 1 seeds. Personally I think the only team with a significant chance to crack a top seed is LSU, so they may not be the most likely 2 seed for that reason.

I think they are the team the 1 seeds don't want to face to in an Elite 8 match-up, so to do that you may need to make sure you are not the last 1 seed. After LSU I think there is a drop-off regarding the next tier.
 
I went with:
LSU
Vandy
Kentucky
TCU

This is all in fun and we all know that things change so quick with these teams. I am riding the Vandy euphoria wave right now. They are doing well, right now. LSU is LSU. Kentucky, like Vandy. I am just riding that wave. TCU is pretty impressive and if they handle Ohio State tomorrow, they are making some major noise. Right now, TCU is just going about their business, and some eyes are on them, and some have their doubts.

Duke my lonely write in. I think they will benefit from their tough start, already on a good track.

It's funny, if we fault Mulkey for weak OOC, Duke's brutal schedule in theory should pay some dividends.

Even an SEC homer like me would be horrified by 5 SEC teams in the Top 8.
 
Everyone was quick to gang up on Mulkey after two losses to TOP 10 teams. Now, LSU has beaten Texas and easily won at Oklahoma.

I think the winner of the B12 might very well have 3 losses in conference, so I didn't pick any team from it. Have MI, Ky, LSU & Louisville.
 
I am staying with my picks. I figure if it all works out, I will look like Nostradamus. If the picks don't work out, I will look like Norris hitting the Jim Beam too early.

Post of the month..... early contender for post of the year.

For my other I was initially thinking Duke but I feel like I am too supportive of the Blue Devils recently and still have concerns about their offense, so my dark horse is….the Ohio State University.

I want to add that given all my recent support ESPECIALLY when they were down, for @triaddukefan to reward another poster as a potential “post of the year” comment…
