NCAA Bracket Prediction - 5 Mar

After climbing into the bracket a couple of days ago, Michigan State was blown out yesterday, which knocked them out of the bracket in favor of Syracuse, who knocked off Clemson on Wednesday. Villanova's win over Creighton moved them back up to a #3, which pushed Purdue down a notch, which was the only movement among the top 16 overall seeds. Here is my full current bracket, with rising teams in green, falling teams in red, the new team in italics, and projected conference champs in bold:
