We’re just a few weeks from March Madness. Teams are making their final pushes for a shot to compete for a national championship.

On Saturday afternoon, the NCAA Tournament selection committee revealed the Top 16 teams in the field, if the season ended now. It was part of the Bracket Preview Show on CBS.

The selection committee revealed the 16 teams that would occupy all seeds No. 1-No. 4. Here’s a look at the breakdown from Saturday’s show:

No. 1 seeds

1. Gonzaga (Top overall)

2. Auburn

3. Arizona

4. Kansas

No. 2 seeds

5. Baylor

6. Kentucky

7. Purdue

8. Duke

No. 3 seeds

9. Villanova

10. Texas Tech

11. Tennessee

12. Illinois

No. 4 seeds

13. Wisconsin

14. UCLA

15. Providence

16. Texas

There’s still a lot of time for these to change. A few weeks remain in the regular season, as well as conference tournaments. It should be interesting to see how much these seeds change by the time Selection Sunday arrives.
