Re-seed the West

This is the weakest region by far with 2 teams stumbling into the tournament on the 3 and 4 line. 

1. Gonzaga 
2. West Virginia (5)
3. St. Mary's (14)
4. Florida State (19)
5. Arizona (20)
6. Notre Dame (25)
7. Vanderbilt (34)
8. Northwestern (39)
9. Xavier (40)
10. Maryland (45)

What jumps out to me is the 6-11 game between Maryland and Xavier. Xavier is higher in KenPom. Maryland shouldn't be a 6-seed in any region. Arizona got to the 2-seed but tread lightly. They're 20th in AdjustedO and 28th in AdjustedD. Florida State and West Virginia are ripe for the upset. 

Early Pick: Gonzaga
