With the season about half way over, and most leagues well into conference play, the NCAA Tournament bracket is starting to take shape. It should be an interesting battle for the top 16 spots this year with teams like East Carolina, Southern Miss and Indiana currently holding a few of those coveted spots. Those teams have very little margin for error while their strength of schedule slowly goes down compared to teams in the ACC, Pac-12 and SEC.
