Selection Sunday 2021: March Madness bracket revealed

March 14th, 2021

The 2021 NCAA men’s basketball tournament is here. At long last, after a 23-month wait. The March Madness bracket reveal is underway on CBS, with some unsurprising news at the very top of it: Gonzaga is the No. 1 overall seed.

The Bulldogs enter the tournament undefeated, and as the betting favorite to win the national title — +300 at BetMGM. They went wire-to-wire as the No. 1 team in the AP poll.

Gonzaga was the first of 68 teams unveiled on Selection Sunday. Baylor earned the second No. 1 seed. Illinois earned the third No. 1, and Michigan is expected to get the fourth.

On the bubble, Syracuse, Wichita State, Drake and Utah State are all in.

The full bracket is below, and will be filled in as the rest of the matchups are released.
