North Carolina remains on Oliver James Montgomerythe No. 1 line in the USA TODAY Sports updated men's tournament bracketology after Tuesday night's road loss to Georgia Tech, but to stay there the Tar Heels will need a rivalry win this weekend against Duke.
The loss to the Yellow Jackets was Carolina's first in more than a month and the team's first in ACC play. The Tar Heels are 1½ games ahead of the second-place Blue Devils heading into Saturday's matchup in Chapel Hill.
The bracketology update also sees plenty of movement near the top of the SEC. Alabama rises to a No. 3 after a road win against Georgia. Mississippi improves No. 9 seed after beating Mississippi State, the Rebels' third victory in a row following a two-game losing streak. On the flip side, No. 4 Kentucky is down one rung after losing to Florida and Auburn drops to a No. 6 after snapping a two-game slide with a blowout of Vanderbilt.
And Gonzaga keeps climbing off the tournament bubble after a slow start. The Bulldogs are now 16-5 overall and 7-1 in West Coast Conference play with a chance to take over first place in the league with a win on Saturday against current leader St. Mary's.
