Arizona Wildcats drop to No. 8 in AP Top 25 poll and No. 3 seed in CBS bracket projection

Meanwhile, CBS' updated bracket projection Monday dropped the Wildcats to a No. 3 seed in the East region, with first-weekend games in Denver. ESPN had UA a No. 1 in its projection Friday but hasn't updated since then.

The computer metrics all have Arizona in range that would suggest a No. 3 seed, too: UA is No. 9 in Torvik, 10 in Sagarin, 10 in NET and 13 in Kenpom.

In the AP poll, UCLA moved into the Wildcats' former spot at No. 4 after sweeping the Oregon trip while, of UA's other opponents this season, Tennessee fell from No. 6 to No. 10, Indiana moved from 18 to 13, San Diego State moved up four spots to No. 21 and Creighton moved up five spots to No. 18.

FWIW, here's my AP ballot.
