Bracketology - 2/16/2026

Here's a fun fact: There is one team that owns three victories over current Top 5 teams. Any guesses? Well, if you're reading this, you probably already know: it's Texas Tech!

The Red Raiders, despite having almost no bench (360th in bench minutes played), have taken down Houston at home, Duke on a neutral court, and most recently, Arizona on the road. No team in college basketball, not even Michigan, can boast a more impressive top 3 wins.

As Selection Sunday nears, these big wins stand out considerably compared to other resumes. Wisconsin added a road win over Illinois and a home win over Michigan St to their already enourmous road win over Michigan. Even with only decent metrics, Wisconsin has risen from the bubble to a safely in team. 

These last few weeks will provide many a large win opportunity. Who will take it, that is the question?
