Team Comparison Tool

I added a new feature to the site that I think you will like. It is a Team Comparison Tool, which allows you to compare the tournament resumes of two teams side by side. Try it out and let me know how if like it.

Friday Bracket

February 2 Monday’s bracket is posted.

For the second straight bracket, the most noteworthy move again features Nebraska. The Cornhuskers lost at home to Illinois 78-69. As a result, Nebraska has fallen off the top line and was replaced by UConn. The battle for No. 1 seeds this year could go six or seven teams deep.

The win by the Illini is their 11th straight. Their last loss came at home to Nebraska in their first meeting this season. That was also the second top ten win on the road for Illinois in its last three games. The Illini are now up to a two seed.

Florida is back in the top 16 of the bracket following a 10-77 win over Alabama on Saturday. The Gators are a four seed.

BYU dropped out of the top 4 seeds after losing at Kansas on Saturday. The Jayhawks played the second half without star freshman Darryn Peterson. He has been battling an ankle injury this season. Despite that, he outscored BYU star freshman AJ Dybantsa 18-17.

The next bracket will be on Friday.
