State projected to be in.
Movement: Kentucky, humbled by a last-second loss to LSU mid-week, earns lock status with a bounce-back home rout of Alabama on Saturday. The Wildcats are that team where I won’t be shocked if they make an Elite Eight run or get bounced in the opening round. The defense is dreadful, but when the offense is humming, it’s good enough to overcome.
Mississippi State moves up to safely in the field while riding a five-game winning streak, but the Bulldogs have a tough road ahead: vs. Kentucky, at Auburn, at Texas A&M, vs. South Carolina. A&M hangs on despite a four-game skid, but Ole Miss drops off having lost five of six.
