<p>UConn moved up to a 10-seed while Harvard remained an 11-seed in the latest bracketology.</p> <p>The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-basketball/teams/connecticut-huskies">Connecticut Huskies</a> are a 10-seed and the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-basketball/teams/harvard-crimson">Harvard Crimson</a> are an 11-seed in ESPN analyst Joe Lunardi's latest bracketology (<a href="http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/bracketology" target="_blank">via ESPN</a>).</p>
<p>Harvard remained in place from Lunardi's March 2 update while UConn moved up from a 12-seed to a 10-seed. In Lunardi's latest brackets, UConn would face future Big East foe and 7-seed Memphis in the South regional. Harvard would play 6-seed Gonzaga in the Midwest regional.</p>
<p>The Huskies' Big East conference foe Notre Dame is currently slotted as the 6-seed in the South regional which sets up a potential Sweet 16 matchup.</p>
<p>Connecticut finished the regular season 18-12 (8-10 Big East). The Huskies will play DePaul in the First Round of the Big East Tournament on March 6 at 7 p.m. Harvard won at least a share of the Ivy League regular season title by going 12-2 in conference and 26-4 overall. The Crimson could be forced into a one-game playoff against Penn for the Ivy title and the autobid into the NCAA Tournament if Penn defeats Princeton on March 6.</p>

<p>UConn moved up to a 10-seed while Harvard fell to an 11-seed in the latest bracketology.</p> <p>The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-basketball/teams/connecticut-huskies">Connecticut Huskies</a> are now a 10-seed for the NCAA tournament in ESPN analyst Joe Lunardi's latest bracketology (<a href="http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/bracketology" target="_blank">via ESPN</a>). The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-basketball/teams/harvard-crimson">Harvard Crimson</a> have dropped to an 11-seed.</p>
<p>When we last checked in on the brackets, UConn was an 11-seed while Harvard was a 10-seed. UConn and Harvard switched seeds but not places. The Huskies are in the East bracket vs. 7-seed Gonzaga. The Crimson are projected to land in the Midwest bracket against 6-seed Creighton.</p>
<p>A few days ago, UConn was in the East regional against 7-seed Kansas State and Harvard was also in the East against 6-seed New Mexico. Since that last update, Harvard fell, 55-54 to Penn in Ivy League play and UConn lost to Syracuse, 71-69.</p>
<p>No team seeded higher than 11th has ever reached a Final Four. The 11-seed has only reached the Final Four three times (LSU 1986, George Mason 2006 and VCU 2011).</p>

<p>UConn fell two spots to an 11-seed in the latest bracketology while Harvard remained a 10-seed.</p> <p>In the latest bracketology from ESPN analyst Joe Lunardi, The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-basketball/teams/harvard-crimson">Harvard Crimson</a> are a 10-seed and the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-basketball/teams/connecticut-huskies">Connecticut Huskies</a> are an 11-seed (<a href="http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/bracketology" target="_blank">via ESPN</a>).</p>
<p>Connecticut has fallen two seeds from the Feb. 17 bracketology by Lunardi. Harvard's positioning remained the same but they are playing in a new regional.</p>
<p>UConn was a 9-seed in the South regional against 8-seed Memphis on Feb. 17 but are now projected as the 11-seed in that regional against 6-seed Murray State. The drop in seeds for the Huskies would have them traveling to Albuquerque, New Mexico, for the game instead of to Louisville, Kentucky, as they would as the 9-seed. The Huskies' 7-8 Big East record has them buried in league play. However, UConn has won two of their last three games.</p>
<p>Harvard still plays 7-seed Vanderbilt in the latest projections. However, instead of being in the East regional, the Crimson are now slotted in the Midwest regional. The Crimson are 23-3 overall and lead the Ivy League with a 9-1 record.</p>
