Maryland is the top seed because of its superior RPI and high strength-of-schedule. The Terps have the most Top 10 wins (3) and Top 20 wins (7). … Boston College has rolled along with few obstacles, having already matched their program high for conference wins (5) with two games to play. A win over Virginia Tech this weekend sews up the ACC regular season title. … JMU’s profile is worthy of a Top 4 team with the lone loss coming to No. 1 Maryland. …

Florida has the second most Top 20 wins in the nation (5). … Penn won the battle of unbeaten Ivies against Dartmouth to take sole possession of first. … One of the final two undefeated teams remaining, Stony Brook is crushing its America East competition and its RPI is taking a hit, dropping to No. 8. Nevertheless, SBU’s profile will keep them in the Top 3 unless they lose. … Loyola bounced back from its loss to Syracuse with a comeback victory over Navy to take the Patriot League lead. …

Colorado gets the nod over Stanford for the Pac-12’s projected automatic bid due to its superior RPI and head-to-head meeting earlier this year. … High Point has more wins against ACC foes (2) than Syracuse and Louisville combined (0). The Panthers are up to No. 24 in the RPI. … UMass is tied atop the A-10 with Richmond, but is one spot ahead of the Spiders in this week’s RPI release. The Minutewomen have a marginal at-large profile with an early win over Dartmouth as its highlight. … Jacksonville is the lone unbeaten in the Atlantic Sun and is the heavy favorite to win the league again. …

Marist eked out an 8-7 win over Quinnipiac to remain the last undefeated MAAC squad. They travel to league favorite Canisus today. … NEC play only began recently and Wagner’s 2-0 start is good enough for the projected automatic bid. … The Southern Conference has Furman and Central Michigan on the board without a loss and Furman’s higher RPI (80) trumps the Chippewas (93). It will be mighty difficult for the SoCon winner to avoid the play-in game.
