As I watched the brackets unfold on Selection Sunday, there were few surprises as the number 1, 2, and, 3 seeds went pretty much to the teams I expected. Some could argue that Memphis should have been a number one seed instead of Connecticut, but to me it is a mute point as the pairings placed them on a collision course in the West final either way.
The regular season has ended, and the Conference Championships are in full swing as the top college basketball teams in the nation jockey for position heading into the Big Dance.
With Selection Sunday only days away, prized bracket seedings are still on the line as anything can happen over the next few days.
