The Sharp Action crew breaks down the South Region of the NCAA Tournament bracket, analyzing key matchups and offering their top betting picks for the first round games. We dive into the controversy of West Virginia's omission, Louisville's unfavorable seeding, and debate whether Auburn has a clear path to the Elite Eight.
• West Virginia becoming the first team unanimously projected in all bracket predictions to miss the tournament
• Louisville receiving a surprisingly low 8-seed despite being a top-25 team and ACC Tournament runner-up
• Michigan (-3) vs UC San Diego matchup featuring contrasting styles - size advantage vs three-point shooting
• Yale (+7.5) having potential to cover against Texas A&M in another mid-major upset opportunity
• New Mexico (+4) against Marquette standing out as the top upset play in the region
• Michigan State's path to potentially reaching the Elite Eight as a 2-seed
