NCAA Bracket Prediction - 2 Mar

March is here, and it's only 2 weeks until the official bracket is released, and in this week's predicted bracket, there is a lot of movement on the bubble, with 5 new teams jumping in. Georgia, Indiana, Boise State, North Carolina, and Xavier are all on the inside this week, pushing out SMU, Texas, Oklahoma, Wake Forest, and Nebraska, marking the biggest shift seen so far this season in the bracket. There was also a change at the top, where Duke slipped to a #2 seed, in favor of Florida. There are currently 6 teams in the running for the #1 seeds, with Auburn as the only lock, while Tennessee and Duke are both on the wrong side for now. Here is my full current bracket, with rising teams in green, falling teams in red, new teams in italics, and conference leaders in bold:
