Updated look at Kentucky's seed in Joe Lunardi's Bracketology after the win over Penn

Is this a good NCAA Tournament draw for the Kentucky Wildcats?

Joe Lunardi updated his Bracketology, and the Kentucky Wildcats are still a six-seed after the win in Philadelphia over the Penn Quakers. 

Let's take a look at the 15 other teams on Kentucky's side of the bracket.

Looking at this draw for the Kentucky Wildcats, I feel pretty good about it. James Madison is a good team, and so is Clemson, but Kentucky is significantly better than both of these teams. Baylor is a good basketball team as well, with one of the best freshmen in college hoops in Ja'Kobe Walter, but Kentucky can beat them. 

Kentucky's loss to UNC Wilmington has severely changed the national outlook of this basketball team. If they win this game, Kentucky is a top-five team heading into this matchup against the North Carolina Tar Heels. 

This loss to UNC Wilmington was inexcusable, but this is college basketball, and these things happen. People are writing off this Kentucky team because of one ugly loss, but this team shouldn't be written off. 

What's done is done when it comes to the ugly loss to UNCW, but the Cats can show the college basketball world who they really are with a win over #9 North Carolina. 

If they do get the win in this ball game, it would be a Quad 1 win and would likely boost the Cats in Lunardi's Bracketology for next week.
