A lot can change, but here's some teams that are currently in that 7-10 bubble.
7/10's
#18 Clemson/Ohio State
#20 Maryland/Utah State
#21 Mississippi State/Texas
#22 Memphis/Baylor
8/9
#25 Louisville/Oregon
#26 New Mexico/#31 Gonzaga
#27 Saint Mary's/#33 Connecticut
#28 UCLA/#29 Creighton
If you can get a 3 or 4 seed, you will still get a mid-major first round and then will have some inconsistent 5/6 stinkers that could all easily lose first round, and you'd get a 11/12 seed instead of a 5/6.
Current projected 5/6 seeds: Illinois, Kansas, Kentucky, Arizona, Ole Miss, Purdue, Missouri & Marquette. All of those teams have at least 6 losses already.
