Observations:
First and Fan released the new bracket today in anticipation of the NCAA’s announcement on Saturday. The Sweet 16 remained the same from our last bracket. Of note, Tennessee took over the last #1 seed bumping Michigan St. down to the 2 Line, and Wisconsin and Kansas swapped seeds.
At the other end of the bracket, St. John’s replaces Creighton and Utah St. moves in for the first time with San Francisco dropping out. Enjoy!
