Projected seed: 9 (automatic qualifier)

Connecticut's resume presents a mixed bag. The team boasts significant wins against formidable opponents like Baylor and Gonzaga, showcasing their capability to perform in high-stakes situations. However, a trio of losses in tight matchups to Memphis, Dayton, and Creighton left questions about their consistency. Additionally, while their defense shows promise, ranking highly against weaker teams might inflate their numbers. The remaining games against St. John's and Providence will be pivotal; victory in these could solidify their position, while further losses, particularly against teams like Marquette, would complicate their path to the NCAA tournament.
