re: So what's the seed now?

What people don’t realize, P5 schools don’t get bids past 11 seed .

Mizzou #12 seed in 02 and lost to OU in the Elite 8. They had a 26-12 record and were 9-7 in conference.

P5 has nothing to do with NCAA basketball. There are 10 non-P5 school’s in the top 25.

UConn is the only FBS football team in the Big East. Since the realignment in 2013 the Big East has had 3 National Champion’s and 6 final’s appearances. PAC 12, SEC, and Big 10 have not won a National Championship since then.

NCAA basketball has been changing a lot over the last 10 to 15 years. It is going to change even more for non-P5 football schools or schools that don’t field FBS football teams, because they can focus NIL money on basketball.

With conference’s expanding and NIL P5 football schools will get some more lower seeds in and non-P5 football schools will get some higher seeds.
