Unless your name is Gregg Nigl, there’s at least one “X” on your bracket sheet. It’s been a pretty chalk tournament so far with a few upsets including No. 12 Oregon and No. 13 UC-Irvine winning their first-round matchups in the South and the Ducks moving to the Sweet 16.
The Midwest Region saw just one big upset in the first round with Ohio State beating Iowa State before falling to Houston in the second round. Wofford’s upset attempt over Kentucky fell short, which would have shaken up the brackets.
Outside of that Ohio State upset over Iowa State, the Midwest has been a fairly predictable region thus far.
