seeded on the first four lines."


Correct--just realize that this isn't an "absolute"

quote:

• The committee will attempt to keep conference teams
from meeting until the regional final round.
• If the committee is unable to balance the bracket after
exhausting all possible options, it has the flexibility to permit two teams from the same conference to meet
each other after the first round.


But with LSU and South Carolina being the only 2 teams in the SEC that are worth a shite, the committee keeping them away from each other won't be an issue.

That caveat is there for in case there are like 6 teams from the same conference in the top 16 or some shite.

This is 100% an absolute lol, that's why it says first 4 teams selected. The committee will always have flexibility for the back end stuff, but with regards to the first four from a conference they will never be in same region (at least the ones in top 16)
