Oklahoma, UNC, pitt, uconn, lville, kansas, mizzou, nova, washington, memphis, michigan state, purdue, duke, wake forest are the only ones I can think of for sure that'll be higher seeded. I think they've got a good shot at a 4.

4-5 is essentially the same thing. My point was more that as a 4-5 they have a much easier route to the Sweet 16 than being a 6-7 so winning was critical. I could see Syracuse, UCLA, and Florida St all having a decent shot of being put up on the 4 line before Gonzaga.
What could be really interesting is if 3 Big East teams wound up a #1 then only one team could be a 4 or a 5 meaning any other teams that fall into that line would have to be bumped up to a 3 or down to a 6. Could get real confusing if Marquette beat Villanova or Syracuse beat Pittsburgh.
