Seed update for March 2

What a mess this week was.  Just about everyone in the 3-6 seed range dropped at least one game.  Saint Louis would probably be a #3 if they had swept their games; instead, they are a #6 and in dire need of a win to keep from dropping further.  Cincinnati lost twice, and hardly moved because of the carnage at the spots behind them.  Iowa has plummeted to the 8-9 seed range, and really needs a win against Purdue.  As a Michigan fan, I can tell you that that is not as easy as it sounds.  At the top, Kansas had a #1 seed for a couple of hours there, right up until they lost to Oklahoma State.
