Despite a wild Saturday in college basketball in which nine ranked teams lost and in which top-25 teams went 12-8 against unranked opponents, the four No. 1 seeds in March Madness correspondent Andy Katz's latest 2020 ������Ƶ Tournament projections remained the same: Baylor, Gonzaga, San Diego State and Kansas.

With less than a month and a half away until Selection Sunday, Baylor leads the latest March Madness projections as the No. 1 overall seed and the Big 12 claims half of the top seeds.

In Katz's previous predicted bracket on Jan. 25, Kansas and San Diego State replaced Duke and Butler as No. 1 seeds. Katz's earlier brackets include a preseason bracket in September (50 days before opening night last fall), one in early December (100 days from Selection Sunday) and one in mid-January (about two months from Selection Sunday).

No. 1 seeds: Baylor, Kansas, Gonzaga, San Diego State

Once again, Baylor (19-1) is Katz's No. 1 overall seed. The Bears are also No. 1 in the latest AP poll, plus No. 2 in the latest NET rankings (as of Sunday, Feb. 2).

Two of the projected No. 1 seeds — Baylor and San Diego State — have never been a No. 1 seed so a historic ������Ƶ tournament could lie ahead of us. The Bears have been No. 3 four times under coach Scott Drew, most recently in 2017, while the Aztecs were a No. 2 seed in 2011 during a season in which they started 20-0.

Kansas and Gonzaga, however, are no strangers to earning a top seed. The 'Zags earned a No. 1 seed three times last decade — for the first time in 2013 and again in 2017 and 2019.

The Jayhawks have been a top seed 14 times: 1986, 1992, 1995, 1997, 1998, 2002, 2007, 2008, 2010, 2011, 2013, 2016, 2017 and 2018. Kansas hasn't been seeded worse than No. 4 since 2000.

Moving up

Among the schools that were included in both Katz's last bracketology in January and his first projection for February, here are the teams that moved up at least five spots.

• Ohio State — up 12 spots
• Creighton — up 10 spots
• Indiana — up seven spots
• Villanova — up six spots
• LSU — up five spots
• Maryland: — up five spots
• Michigan — up five spots

The Big Ten leads all conferences with a national-best 10 teams in Katz's projected ������Ƶ tournament field, down from 11 in his previous tournament projections.
