The Lipscomb basketball team clinched a spot in the NCAA Tournament by beating North Alabama in the Atlantic Sun Conference Tournament on March 9, earning the league's automatic berth.
The Bisons (25-9) had momentum going into the tournament as the No. 1 seed and will carry that momentum into the NCAA tournament having won 11 of their last 12 games. The Bisons will learn their seeding for the NCAA tournament on Selection Sunday (5 p.m. CT, CBS).
Here's where Lipscomb stands in the latest March Madness projections.
ESPN's Joe Lundardi has the Bisons as a 13 seed in the West set to play No. 4 seed Wisconsin in Seattle. The No. 1 seed in the West, according to Lunardi, is Florida.
Sports Illustrated also has Lipscomb in the Midwest, but as a 13 seed playing 4 seed Wisconsin. Sports Illustrated also has Houston as the No. 1 seed in the Midwest.
CBS' Jerry Palm has Lipscomb in the East as a No. 13 seed playing 4-seed Maryland. Duke is the No. 1 seed.
Lipscomb has been in the top-100 in the NET most of the season and is currently No. 84. That's the Bisons' highest rank ever.
The Bisons' best win came at Chattanooga 80-62 on Dec. 3. Chattanooga is No. 115 in the Net. The Bisons also beat Wofford (78-69), which is the NET top 150.
