3/17/26: FULL Bracket Preview! Q&A, Plus Everything You Need to Know
Q: What is your biggest takeaway about Duke in this bracket?
Duke is the top seed in their region and has shown resilience despite injuries; their overall pedigree and performance give them a strong chance to come out of the East, though injuries and matchups will be critical.
3/17/26: FULL Bracket Preview! Q&A, Plus Everything You Need to Know
Q: Where do you want to start off?
We start with the East Region, unpacking its depth and the implications for seed lines, which sets the tone for the rest of the bracket discussion.
3/12/26: Xavier Beats Marquette, Interviews w/Isaiah Walker and Tre Carroll, Cincinnati Loses, and Miami Begins MAC
Q: What was the pace of this game like today?
The game was fast-paced with both teams pushing tempo and using zones to disrupt rhythm, leading to a high-scoring, back-and-forth affair.
3/5/26: Bracketology for UC/Miami/UK/Louisville with Rocco Miller, Plus NKU Wins Tourney Opener
Q: How does Louisville's road-game performance affect their seed prospects given their current metrics?
Louisville has a solid floor in performance metrics but has limited strong road/neutral wins, which tends to cap their seed around the 6-7 range unless they string together more marquee victories on the road or at neutral sites.
3/5/26: Bracketology for UC/Miami/UK/Louisville with Rocco Miller, Plus NKU Wins Tourney Opener
Q: What's the ceiling for Miami (Ohio) if they run the table in the MAC, and what seed range might they settle into?
If Miami goes 34-0 and wins the MAC, their seed could rise toward the 7-spot range in optimistic scenarios, but most projections place them around the 10-11 seed line due to comparative metrics like Strength of Resume and NET; the exact seed depends on the final bracket metrics.
