16 Seeds-   Vermont,   Robert Morris,   Utah Valley/Alabama St.,   Weber St./High Point

Last four byes:   Memphis,   Florida St.,   California,   Providence
Last four in:   Xavier,   SMU,   Dayton,   Arkansas
First four out:   Minnesota,   Missouri,   Georgetown,   BYU
Next four out:   West Virginia,   Marquette,   Tennessee,   Utah
Others Considered:   North Carolina St.,   Nebraska,   St. John,   Indiana,   Clemson,  Illinois, and Richmond.

There is nothing really of note to add here this time.  The bracket was very difficult to put together in places especially along the ten line because teams could literally only fit in one space so Memphis and Florida St. were put into potential Sweet 16 matchups with conference foes (which is allowed now under the NCAA committee's rules and regulations).   Otherwise the bracket was very smooth and I will be posting the full bracket tomorrow sometime during the day.
