Here's a look at where Maryland stands in the final hours leading up to the selection show:
NET: 10
Torvik: 10
KenPom: 13
BPI: 13
Quad 1 record: 8-7
Quad 2 record: 6-1
Quad 3 record: 3-0
Quad 4 record: 8-0
Quad 1 wins: UCLA, @Illinois, @Indiana, Wisconsin, @Nebraska, @PSU, @Michigan, Illinois (B1G tourney)
Bad losses: @Washington
Tournament projections:
Lunardi (ESPN): 4 seed in the East (Duke No. 1)
Palm (CBS): 4 seed in the West (Florida No. 1)
Mike DeCourcy (FOX): 4 seed in the East (Duke No. 1)
Patrick Stevens (WaPo): 4 seed in the East (Duke No. 1)
USA TODAY: 4 seed in the East (Duke No. 1)
Delphi: 4 seed in the East (Duke No. 1)
Hoops HD: 4 seed in the East (Duke No. 1)
DeCourcy's bracket in particular would potentially be a tough one. He has UConn as the 8 seed and Clemson as the 5 seed in the East. And the Terps would get Ivy champs Yale in the opener (assuming they beat Cornell today).
The overwhelming consensus is that the Terps will be the 4 seed in the East. Will be interesting to see if that comes to fruition.
