ESPN has their first guess out.  Nebraska is in the "First 4 Out" group.  They have 12 B1G teams in the bracket including Purdue as the overall #1 seed.

I know - WAY too early considering rosters aren't even set yet.  I just figured it was out there so I'd share.

Or that’s pretty much where we are every year.

Still way too early but ESPN released their latest guess today.  Huskers still in "First Four Out".  Only 11 B1G teams in (was 12 a month ago) and Houston now overall #1.

It is clearly early BUT there are not many guys left out there.  There will be a few that leave the draft and stuff like that.

You're right, most rosters are pretty set.  I'd say any projection before mid-January is more guess than anything else.  At least by then you can make a semi-educated guess.  By mid-February I'd say they become actual projections.

Sounds like there may be a few more teams in the tournament in the next couple of years.
