NCAA Bracket Prediction - 18 Feb

There was no movement among the #1 and #2 seeds since Monday, and only a couple of changes on the next two lines down, but there was plenty of shifting in the middle lines of the bracket, and Creighton once again made the leap back into the bracket, knocking out SMU, who had just slipped in earlier in the week.
