Round of 32

East Region

  • No. 1 Dayton over No. 9 Florida
  • No. 4 Maryland over No. 5 Louisville
  • No. 11 Stephen F. Austin over No. 14 Belmont
  • No. 2 Florida State over No. 7 Michigan

South Region

  • No. 9 Utah State over No. 1 Baylor
  • No. 12 New Mexico State over No. 13 Vermont
  • No. 3 Duke over No. 11 Richmond
  • No. 2 Kentucky over No. 10 USC

Midwest Region 

  • No. 1 Kansas over No. 8 Saint Mary’s
  • No. 4 Wisconsin over No. 5 BYU
  • No. 3 Michigan State over No. 6 Arizona
  • No. 7 Houston over No. 15 Bradley

West Region

  • No. 1 Gonzaga over No. 9 Marquette
  • No. 5 Ohio State over No. 4 Virginia In what would certainly be a defensive battle. The Buckeyes have just enough to get past the Cavaliers to advance to the Sweet 16.
  • No. 3 Oregon over No. 6 Butler
  • No. 7 Iowa over No. 2 San Diego State

With the field narrowed down, who would advance past the Sweet 16 to earn their spot in the Elite Eight, and then hopefully the Final Four?
