By Charlie Creme Updated: 2/13/2024 at 9:30 a.m. ET
Bracketology is ready to hit overdrive in its 21st season on ESPN.com. With conference play hitting the home stretch, we will project the field of 68 every Tuesday and Friday, with daily updates arriving during Championship Week and leading right into Selection Sunday on March 17. Albany, New York, and Portland, Oregon, will host the regionals, as the two-site format remains for a second consecutive year. It all culminates in Cleveland at the Final Four on April 5 and 7.
Bracket Watch
Forget Super Sunday. We had Shakeup Sunday. Upsets and big performances created major changes within the top 16. Ohio State, winner of 11 wins in a row, is the newest No. 1 seed after its rout of Michigan State and Iowa’s loss at Nebraska. Oregon State, the other big mover, is now in position to be a host school as a No. 4 seed. The Beavers went from No. 22 in the NET to No. 17 after a sweep at Utah and Colorado, the most impressive consecutive road wins of any team in the country this season. They are 4-0 against the mountain schools. With UCLA and USC visiting Corvallis this weekend, Oregon State is in position to lock down a top-four NCAA tournament seed. This after being the next-to-last at-large team in our preseason bracket and picked to finish 10th in the conference by the Pac-12 coaches.
