The root goes down. If it's not too late you might be able to save them. Take a wooden skewer (thin) and slowly & gently remove the dirt above the seed (slowly and gently). It's possible the tip anchored itself and now it needs help finding light.

If I don't see anything sprout after three days I dig to see where it's at.

okay, dug them out. the first two little leaves were already formed, but yellowish from being buried.

do you think they can still be saved???

Yes, and try to stabilize the stem with the soil. They should be okay.
