The Selection Committee staged its annual early bracket release over the weekend, revealing the identities and placements of the top 16 teams in the field of 68, as it stands right now. None of those teams lost or scored major victories on Sunday, so we can safely say that they all ended the day exactly where they started it. Rather than our usual region-by-region look at the field, we’ll use this edition of the Bracket Watch to go over some of what we learned from the committee’s big reveal party and what those lessons could mean for the rest of the season.
