Madness bracket was officially released on Selection Sunday giving college basketball fans the first look at the field of 68 for the 2025 NCAA Tournament and after one day of the First Four, North Carolina and Alabama State are moving on to the main bracket with another day of First Four action set for Wednesday.

Where the selection committee stumbled a bit: selecting North Carolina over more deserving teams like West Virginia. The Tar Heels snared the final at-large spot in the field despite going 1-12 in Quadrant 1 games and only defeating one at-large-caliber NCAA tournament team.

The chances of Houston cutting down the nets at the Final Four in a few weeks could depend on the uncertain status of J'Wan Roberts' ailing right ankle. The same can be said for fellow No. 1 seed Duke and Cooper Flagg's left ankle.
