Bracket Progress: Final 4 edition

This year's tourney is the tale of two brackets, one decent and the other crap-tacular.

This year's Final Four:

North Carolina, Oklahoma, Syracuse, Villanova

Mike entered this weekend with two Final Four teams still alive - and both died merciless deaths.  First the Dukies, who lost to Oregon in the 16's; then Virginia, who lost to their ACC rivals Syracuse in the 8's.  Mike's other two Final Four teams were Arizona (out in the first round to Wichita State, which had a frickin' play-in game) and Kentucky (out in round 2 to Indiana).

Tim lost 2 of his Final Four - Michigan State to Middle Tennessee in the first round (an upset that Mike successfully called), and KU losing to Villanova in the 8's.  He successfully picked Oklahoma and North Carolina to get to the Final Four.
