Bracketology: February 25th
The Bracketology field is based on how the tourney looks "as of this moment." Arrows indicate the amount of seeds a team moved since the last update. (Just because a team won or lost doesn't necessarily mean they'll move substantially though.)
Why should you care what I have to say? Did you know, last year I was considered to have one of the Top 2 or 3 brackets (depending on the scoring rubric) amongst 53 national experts including Joe Lunardi, Gary Parrish and the like).
Movement:
Previous update was February 23rd. Arrows indicate movement by seed. Two arrows equals a change of two seeds, etc..
Kansas moves up to their highest spot of the season after knocking off Oklahoma. Sooners still remain a #1 seed though due to the RPI and Griffin's absence. LSU continues to move up the charts as well, despite what the numbers say, I'm certain the committee will show respect (rightfully or not) to a team that rolls through the SEC. Texas A&M moves back into the field after a buzzer-beating win, replacing Kansas St as the final Big 12 team in the field.
