Here's my bracket for today. Florida State takes Iowa State's spot in the First Four. Northwestern remains in despite an overtime loss, mainly due to other teams's blunders. And, regions+ first round sites are here today!
First, the seed list (remember, you read it snaking, so the odd lines run left to right and the even lines right to left):
1 North Carolina, Syracuse, Kentucky, Michigan State
2 Kansas, Baylor, Duke, Indiana
3 Georgetown, Ohio State, UNLV, Missouri
4 Gonzaga, Kansas State, Michigan, Connecticut
5 Seton Hall, Florida, Murray State, Vanderbilt
6 Marquette, Virginia, Creighton, Illinois
7 Alabama, Louisville, San Diego State, Mississippi State
8 West Virginia, Temple, Purdue, Saint Mary’s
9 Wisconsin, New Mexico, Wichita State, Harvard
10 Memphis, Stanford, Marshall, Dayton
11 Texas, North Carolina State, BYU, Cincinnati
12 California vs. Northwestern, Xavier vs. Florida State, Southern Miss, Saint Louis
13 Iona, Ohio, Oral Roberts, Belmont
14 George Mason, Davidson, Middle Tennessee, Long Beach State
15 Nevada, Bucknell, Lamar, Cleveland State,
16 UNC-Asheville vs. Stony Brook LIU-Brooklyn vs. Texas Southern Norfolk State, Weber State
A quick note about seeding first. The seeds above are the "true seeds". Some teams have had their seeds switched below (e.x. Illinois and Vanderbilt) for bracketing purposes (no re-matches, keep teams in the same conference apart, etc.)
