NCAA Bracket Prediction - 26 Jan

The #1 seeds all remained the same for another week, but Michigan State replaced Oregon on the #2 line as the Ducks fell to a #4 slot. Texas, Ohio State, and UCF moved into the bracket, knocking out SMU, Nebraska, and North Texas, the first two of which remain in the hunt.
