WHO IS IN THE NCAA TOURNAMENT?

#1 Kentucky  26-1  (12-0)
The Wildcats certainly did nothing to discredit their status as the number one team in the country.  Ohio State losing was huge and it appears that barring a total collapse, Kentucky will be a number one seed this year.  They have a tough game against desperate Mississippi State on Tuesday, and this appears to be a chance for a loss as it will be an insane environment.  Kentucky follows that with a game at home versus Vandy.  I think a loss at MSU will not hurt Kentucky, but winning at home versus Vandy would be more damaging.
NCAA STATUS: LOCKED IN
PROJECTED SEED: #1
