It was a relatively tame weekend, and that resulted in few changes to our working field of 68 in the Bracket Watch. There was some shuffling, to be sure, but 65 of the 68 teams from our previous bracket returned, and two of the three new teams—North Texas and Lehigh—are from one-bid leagues. The lone newcomer from a power conference is Temple, which took away one of the last four spots in the field from Arizona.

Continuity reigned at the top of the field, even with Michigan State’s loss to Purdue.
