North Carolina is the runaway best team in basketball in the Pomeroy ratings. I think they'll face tough challenges from Michigan State and Georgetown, but I have them advancing as my lone 1 seed (Only 2 1 seeds have advanced the last three years)

In fact, to eschew normal format (and because I want to go to sleep) here...I don't have many surprises here...1 vs 2 and every top 4 seed except WSU making the sweet sixteen. GW grabs the other slot after WSU and Vanderbilt both fall, a nation yawns.
