Bracketology: Michigan State Rises to No. 2 Seed in NCAA Tournament Projections
Michigan State's recent victory against Michigan propels them to a No. 2 seed in the latest NCAA Tournament predictions.
It was not a very good weekend for the top of the bracket. Well, it was fine for the very top where the top six teams won. After that, it was a mess with 11 of the next 14 teams lost.
As I like to say, when everyone loses, nobody loses. When there is that big of a pileup of losses, the seed movements are not very dramatic. Only Michigan State, one of the big winners, moved up two-seed lines. All of the other seed changes were just one line up or down. Only half of the 14 teams moved at all.
