Charlie's got a "way too early look" for Bracketology.
http://espn.go.com/womens-college-basketball/bracketology
In my area of the world, Central Michigan is projected as the MAC winner and a 13 seed. Michigan is projected as a 9 seed and Michigan State a 12 seed/last four in.
The other B1G teams are Maryland and Ohio State at 2 and Indiana at 6.

My vague recollection (with emphasis on "vague") is that Charlie doesn't do a full-blown analysis of the likely winners of conferences outside of maybe the big five, but defaults to either the previous year conference winner or maybe the previous year conference tournament winner. I suppose it would be hard to find some counterexamples to prove my assumption is incorrect but that's my recollection

| Charlie has TAMU failing to get a bid. I know they lost a lot, but will they be that bad?

I agree. It seems hard to believe that they would fall that far. At least he has them in the first 4 out!

That would not be correct in Central Michigan's projection. Ohio had the best record in the regular season and Buffalo won the MAC Tournament.

. But seriously I do think Marquette has a good shot at getting back to the NCAA Tournament in 2017 after a long time away (last bid in 2011) and a projected 9 seed is probably a good prediction at this point. I'm really excited to watch this team next season.
