Welcome to Bracketology 101.  Topics covered include what AQ’s and at-large teams are, what is a bid thief, and how the seeding and finally the brackets are in their final form that we see the second Sunday in March, aka “Selection Sunday” on CBS. 

My objective is for all fans, new and old to gain a deep appreciation of how men's college basketball has taken a life of its own since 1979.  Also, please beware of the bubbles, they might burst when you least expect them--usually in a period of 12 days. Above all, March is to have fun and share in the excitement that being the true definition of what is simply called Madness.

After the break was a brief recap of some of the conference tournament games from the Big South, Missouri Valley, Mountain West, and the Southern Conferences.
