7 out of 10 teams is an awful lot of teams and 6 out of 10 is the next smallest number possible.
The 6th rated team , Texas, is a 9 seed on average by "Bracket Matrix" concencus of projections.
Kstate is a 10 seed on average and come Monday, could be in a 1st place tie in the #1 rated conference.
As of now. 7 look good. It could end up being 6 in a month.
Getting an 8th team is a long shot. Baylor & Ok ST got lots of work to do.
