The NCAA selection committee revealed on Saturday its current top 16 seeds to show where they stand as the season hits the home stretch. The top 16 reveal is always a valuable data point in understanding how the committee views certain teams as well as some big-picture takeaways on what this year’s committee might value most. Then, Saturday marks just the third time in regular-season history—and fifth time ever, including the NCAA tournament—that the Nos. 1, 2, 3 and 4 teams play each other on the same day. Seriously, it’s that rare. So when No. 4 Arizona travels to take on No. 2 Houston and No. 1 Michigan tips off against No. 3 Duke, remember you’re watching history. Sports Illustrated will be live all day providing updates, scores, analysis and more.
