he Wisconsin Badgers have been slated as an 8th seed in the East Region. The Badgers will face Virginia Tech on Thursday in Buffalo, N.Y. The seed is much lower than previous projections for Wisconsin after UW finished second in the regular season and Big Ten conference tournament. If the Badgers beat Virginian Tech, they will have to go up against top overall seed and defending champion Villanova. Duke is the 2nd seed and Baylor is the 3rd seed in the region.
