• For bracketologists, this tournament is notable for several reasons. Bracketology is the process of predicting the field of the NCAA Basketball Tournament, named as such because it is commonly used to fill in tournament brackets for The first is the upset-heavy opening round, which led to every seed number except 16 being represented by at least one team in the second round. The East region, in particular, featured first round victories by seeds 9, 10, 12, 13, and 15. Two 11's and a 14-seed advanced in the other regions. The second round is equally remarkable because there were no upsets in this round whatsoever. The combination of these two anomalies led to an unprecedented occurrence in which a 10 (Temple), an 11 (Connecticut), and a 12-seed (Eastern Michigan) advanced to the Sweet Sixteen without any of the teams pulling off consecutive upsets. Temple University is a state-related public research University in Philadelphia. The University of Connecticut ( Connecticut or UConn) is the State of Connecticut 's Land-grant university. Eastern Michigan University is a comprehensive co-educational Public university located in Ypsilanti Michigan. The reason for this was that the first round successes of 15-seed Richmond, 14-seed Xavier, and 13-seed Penn State led to Temple, Connecticut and Eastern Michigan (respectively) being considered favorites for their second round matchups. The University of Richmond is a private nonsectarian liberal arts university located on the border of the city of Richmond and Henrico County, Virginia Xavier University is a private, Jesuit, co-educational University in the United States located in Cincinnati, Ohio. The Pennsylvania State University (commonly known as Penn State) is a state-related, land-grant, space grant public research University
