1/6 BRACKET

For entainment purposes only.

Once again, the pressure point is the northwest regional.  A couple 4 seeds are probably getting shipped to Boise.  Also a pressure point in the ACC.  Gotta get to a top 2 position - the 3rd and 4th teams in those conferences risk getting shipped out in the west or midwest regional.

Conference blocking will be more prevalent than usual.  With 4 Big 12 teams and 4 ACC teams in the top 16, many block the path of others.  West Virginia is quite lucky their geography makes them a natural fit for the east and keep them from blocking TCU from the midwest in this example bracket.
