Hello friends, and welcome to a “Sonny’s been stuck on the runway at Tampa International Airport for two hours thanks to lightning” edition of Bracketology here at ClutchPoints. But hey, I don’t want to make this entirely about me, because after five months of college hoops action, we’ve finally arrived at Selection Sunday, and that’s much more important than me being sleep deprived on an airplane after getting about 3 hours last night.
At 6 p.m. ET, the final bracket will be announced and March Madness will officially be underway. You can consider this my best and final guess as to what this bracket will look like! Enjoy the madness!
