The Selection Committee also seeded the entire field from 1 to 68. Eight teams – the four lowest-seeded automatic qualifiers and the four lowest-seeded at-large teams – played in the ''First Four'' (the successor to what had been popularly known as " play-in games" through the 2010 tournament). The winners of those games advanced to the main draw of the tournament.
