Field of 68 update: UNC, Kentucky still one-seeds

Posted Mar 11, 2012
Even though Kentucky and North Carolina lost in the SEC and ACC finals, both remain solid No. 1 seeds. The only other competitor for the top seed, Syracuse, lost to Cincinnati in the Big East semifinals on Friday. The Tar Heels lost to Florida State for the second time this season Sunday, but John Henson's wrist injury is improving daily and he'll be ready for the NCAA Tournament. (Sporting News)
