That special March time of year is almost here and we’re really getting down to the nitty-gritty. There aren’t many more games left on team’s schedules before conference tournaments and then before you know it we’ll be filling out our brackets. On Sunday the NCAA’s top 16 teams were announced in the way of four groups of four, showing us who would be a top-four seed if the NCAA tournament started today.
