Tennessee takes over the No. 1 overall seed after toppling Memphis. But the regional matchups --- South vs. West and East vs. Midwest --- remain the same.

One situation that caused great consternation was the placement of Arkansas in Little Rock. That's going to be a no-no since it would place a top team (Memphis or Texas, in this bracket) under siege in the second round. So the team with the biggest gripe with this bracket should be Miami, which was swapped down from a No. 7 seed to make things work correctly.
