With Duke's win over UNC, Duke very likely just locked up a 3-seed in the Tournament.

As of right now I think we're behind

Villanova
Kansas
UNC
Gonzaga

Kentucky
Oregon
UCLA
Arizona

And if we lose tonight we're likely behind...

Duke
Baylor
Louisville

The last 3-seed is probably gonna come down to Notre Dame, FSU, and possibly West Virginia. If Notre Dame beats us tonight it will be hard for the committee to justify putting us ahead of them. If they beat us and Duke they DEFINITELY would pass us. We also need West Virginia to lose tonight or they could pass us too (if we lose to ND).

Florida losing tonight is huge because I can't imagine a scenario where they finish ahead of us so we should at least be the 1st or 2nd #4 seed which should lock up Orlando while they have to sweat out where they're gonna be playing.
