Observations:
A shake up at the top. Michigan St. moves to a #1 seed and Virginia jumps Duke as the overall #1 seed – it’s funny how the numbers work out.
Butler and Alabama move back in to the bracket as Seton Hall and Minnesota fall out. The biggest gainers of the week were LSU and Iowa, both moving up 3 seed lines.
Two new conference leaders enter the bracket as Old Dominion moves past North Texas in the C-USA and North Carolina A & T surpasses Norfolk St. in the MEAC. Enjoy!
