Bracketology 2/2/13
It's been a while, but it's time for another bracketology! Here we go. Remember the seed list snakes, so Indiana is the top 2 seed, Minnesota is the top 4, etc. I made a number of changes besides just those taking into account the results of the week, especially near the bubble line. There were numerous teams that had to switch seed lines for bracketing purposes. Here's a list:
Oregon
North Carolina State
Colorado
Oklahoma
Middle Tennessee
Temple
Pittsburgh
Arizona State
Those teams' true seeding is that listed in the seed list. Here's the bracket:
