UNC men's basketball is high seed in early bracket projections
Posted Dec 11, 2025
The impressive start for No. 14 UNC has the Tar Heels at least a No. 4 seed in most early NCAA Tournament bracket projections, far from last season’s bubble drama. Instead of scrambling for a First Four spot, Hubert Davis’ Tar Heels have built a solid résumé and will likely only have to worry about seeding. Six projections have the Tar Heels as a 3 seed.
