Projected seed: 7

St. John's has shown the ability to compete with strong opponents, evidenced by their narrow loss to Baylor and victories against teams like New Mexico and Kansas State, which bolstered their profile. However, the defensive metrics raise concerns, particularly after matches against teams ranked nearby such as Georgia and Virginia, where their weaknesses were exposed. Upcoming games present crucial opportunities—strong performances against teams like Creighton and Connecticut could solidify their standing, while any misstep against lower-ranked teams could threaten their position as they navigate a challenging Big East schedule.
