Love your work you do a lot for those who like to watch college basketball.

I think you have Ohio State too low on the S Curve in relation to how high you have some other teams. I get that Ohio State only has 1 top 50 win (Maryland) and has no big road wins and has a bad non conf SOS but Michigan State who you have as a 7 seed has 2 top 50 wins and has a really bad loss at home vs Texas Southern has 2 losses outside top 100 (Ohio State has no losses outside top 100). Oregon you have ahead of Ohio State Oregon has 1 top 50 win (Utah at home) and 2 bad losses (outside top 100). Xavier has 5 top 50 wins but 4 bad losses and 12 losses overall to me Xavier is on the bubble and might not even make tournament if they lose at Creighton today where as Ohio State is pretty much a lock to make it. I also would put a few other teams behind Ohio State I have them as a high 8 seed right now with a chance to get to a 7 with a win over Wisky.
