The two biggest changes in my Wednesday S-curve are Clemson's entrance into the field, even though they lost at Duke, and the Blue Devils' return to the top line, thanks to the combination of their win and BYU's defeat at New Mexico Lobos in the Cougars' first game without Brandon Davies. If BYU plays like they did against the Lobos, they won't be in play for even a two seed much longer.
Colorado drop out after they were upset at Iowa State.
Here's a link to Wednesday's S-curve for reference.
