However, before the brackets are released today, there are still a few conference championships to play for and automatic berths to lock up.
After some surprising early-round upsets, both the SEC and Big Ten men's title games are missing their top seeds, as Florida faces Auburn and Wisconsin plays Illinois. Also in action: Duquesne vs. VCU for the Atlantic 10 crown and Temple vs. UAP for the AAC title. The women's side has four conference championship games, headlined by Missouri State facing Drake in the MVC final.
Here's what's in store for Sunday before the selection event (Women's Games in italics):
12:00 p.m. ET — Ivy League (ESPN2) 12:00 pm ET – Patriot League (CBSSN) 12:00 p.m. ET — Northeast (ESPNU/+) 1:00 p.m. ET – SEC (ESPN) 1:00 p.m. and — Atlantic 10 (CBS) 2:00 PM ET — CAA (CBSSN) 2:00 p.m. and — MVC (ESPN2/+) 3:15 p.m. and — American Athletics (ESPN) 3:30 p.m. ET — Big Ten (CBS)
