We are back. The brackets are back, and they are more beautiful than ever.
The Top 3 is well set in stone (Purdue, Connecticut, Houston), but after that there is tremendous fluidity. No one wants to hold on to the fourth 1 seed, and the 3-4 seed lines are filled with incredible wins and mind-boggling losses. And if you want clean, the bubble is precisely the wrong spot to look.
But we still have five weeks of basketball to go, and we will find out soon enough what teams will nail down their spots and which ones will procrastinate. Most teams are close to equal, so this should be fun.
