Part of the reason people were up in arms about the Selection Committee's decisions on regions was because of the West. When you compare the West to the Midwest it looks like the children ride at Six Flags. Wisconsin is a weaker two seed and Arizona has been called the most complete great team in the country. Doesn't look good for the others.
Sports World News Guide to March Madness Bracket Games
Favorite: Arizona
Arizona was the No. 1 team in the country for a part of the season and earned their top seed. They had an early exit from the PAC-12 tournament, but still have the pieces to make a deep run and are considered the most complete team in the country by some.

Upset Watch: Baylor v. Nebraska
Nebraska is in the tournament for the first time in forever and is exciting to watch. That level of desperation can lead to some fireworks. Baylor is a solid team that will be a nice matchup for Nebraska and could very well come out with a victory. Watch out for a desperate team like Nebraska that is just having fun.
Best Matchup: Oregon v. Wisconsin
Oregon is a popular pick to make the Sweet 16 and of course that would have to come through Wisconsin. Oregon has the skill set that perfectly counteracts with Wisconsin and Wisconsin is considered a weaker two seed. If Oregon can pull the upset they might have a shot at the Final Four.
Wild Card: Creighton
As a three seed Creighton could be considered a little highly ranked. They are an interesting team due to their lack of real competition in the new Big East, but they have the parts and experience that some teams don’t. Creighton’s Doug McDermott could be inline to go out in a blaze of glory.
