Bracket Projection: 3/9

We're now three days from Selection Sunday, and not much has changed. This bracket is almost exactly the same, except with more green. Gonzaga, Bucknell, Northern Kentucky, Mount St. Mary's, and South Dakota State all secured bids in the last two days. I also flipped Cal St. Bakersfield and North Dakota with New Mexico State and Eastern Washington, not because either former team lost, but because Kenpom has the two latter team's as slight favorites to win their respective conference tournaments. It will only be slightly embarrassing if I later have to switch them back, but oh well. Here's what we've got:


NEW YORK KANSAS CITY MEMPHIS SAN JOSE
1 Villanova Kansas North Carolina Gonzaga
2 Baylor Oregon Kentucky Louisville
3 Florida St. Florida Arizona UCLA
4 Duke Virginia West Virginia Butler
5 Cincinnati Purdue SMU Saint Mary's
6 Maryland Notre Dame Iowa St. Minnesota
7 Creighton Dayton Oklahoma St. Wisconsin
8 Miami FL Arkansas South Carolina Wichita St.
9 VCU Michigan Northwestern Virginia Tech
10 USC Seton Hall Wake Forest Xavier
11 Vanderbilt Illinois St. Marquette Providence
11 Michigan St. Syracuse
12 UT Arlington Nevada Middle Tennessee UNC Wilmington
13 Princeton Vermont East Tennessee St. Bucknell
14 Ohio Florida Gulf Coast Winthrop New Mexico St.
15 Iona Northern Kentucky UC Irvine Texas Southern
16 Mount St. Mary's Jacksonville St. New Orleans Eastern Washington
16 South Dakota St. North Carolina Central
