The NCAA men’s college basketball tournament is down to four teams.
Yesterday’s conclusion to the “Elite 8” was not the best for the state of Michigan, with both of its teams being knocked out of the tournament. Connecticut took down Michigan St. while Kentucky defeated Michigan. The day before, Dayton’s upset streak ran out, losing to Florida, while Wisconsin beat Arizona.
As Connecticut, Kentucky, Florida, and Wisconsin square off in Texas this weekend to decide who advances to the championship game, the 2014 TVNewser March Madness bracket challenge remains close. Just six points separate the current first place TV new pro, CNN meteorologist Chad Myers, from the fifth place competitor, currently a tie between two CNBCers, Brian Steel and Todd Bonin.
Take a look at the full standings after the jump.
