Duke already received a surprising No. 1 seed Sunday night, and now they catch another break with arguably the easiest draw in the tournament -- they miss West Virginia and instead get a slumping Villanova as the No. 2 seed in their bracket.
1 Duke v.16 Arkansas-Pine Bluff/Winthrop
8 California v. 9 Louisville
5 Texas A&M v. 12 Utah State
4 Purdue v. 13 Siena
6 Notre Dame v. 11 Old Dominion
3 Baylor v. 14 Sam Houston State
7 Richmond v. 10 St. Mary's
2 Villanova v. 15 Robert Morris
Expect plenty more reaction to the complete filed here in this StoryStream throughout the night from our team of bloggers, including our resident Bracketology expert, Chris Dobbertean of Blogging the Bracket (who correctly predicted all but one of the at-large teams).

Why did Duke get the play-in winner?
If the play-in winner is supposed to be the 64th team in the bracket, shouldn’t they be playing the overall #1, i.e. Kansas?
I understand the Thursday vs Friday thing, but if the committee (and everyone else) makes such a big deal about ranking the teams within the same seed level, then shouldn’t that play out in the bracket assignments as well?
