An upset-filled week gives us quite the shake-up at the top of the bracket, including a new No. 1 seed! That wasn’t the only movement, as several teams either moved up or down after an eventful slate of games this week. Iowa State is up with their continued success in the Big 12, while Wisconsin is down because they took three straight upset losses in a row.
As for the bubble, it's as congested as ever with several teams vying for only a few bids. Just one new team appeared, but many others are just a big win from entering the field. All this makes for an exciting bracket projection, not to mention there are just 31 days until we get to see what the official bracket looks like!
