Welcome to our NCAA tournament bracket projection
Coby White and North Carolina join Virginia, Gonzaga and Kentucky on the top line. By Patrick Stevens March 11 at 10:33 AM We’re now inside a week from Selection Sunday. The 68-team field for the NCAA men’s basketball tournament be unveiled on CBS starting at 6 p.m. Eastern time on March 17.
