This year's first rounds weren't all that interesting other than a few strong teams that played to their level of competition and made the games close. 15 teams that were supposed to make it to the sweet 16 are in the sweet 16. #12 seed Arizona made it in but that's because Utah didn't deserve to be a #5 seed and #4 Wake Forest no-showed in the first round and lost to a nobody.

I went undefeated in the second round. Still only have 2 no-shows in the sweet 16 due to the first round losses. So, I have 14 out of 16 left. My elite 8 is all ones and twos except I have Villanova over Duke. I'm kinda concerned with having Pitt in the champ slot considering their stumbling ways through the first couple rounds.

14/16 here too. Wake killed a bunch and Illinois was the other high seed that surprised me.
