The Midwest Regional. This is truly the best region in the NCAA Tournament. Why is it the best? Because all other regions of the country are inferior to the region I was born and raised in. Now this isn't a perfect regional. That would be a Midwest Regional hosted in Minneapolis. But for the 2016 tournament, playing at the United Center in Chicago will have to do. Before we get to my predictions and other TAKES, here's a look at this part of the bracket:
#1 Virginia Cavaliers vs. #16 Hampton Pirates
#2 Michigan State Spartans vs. #15 Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders
#3 Utah Utes vs. #14 Fresno State Bulldogs
#4 Iowa State Cyclones vs. #13 Iona Gaels
#5 Purdue Boilermakers vs. #12 Little Rock Trojans
#6 Seton Hall Pirates vs. #11 Gonzaga Bulldogs
#7 Dayton Flyers vs. #10 Syracuse Orange
#8 Texas Tech Red Raiders vs. #9 Butler Bulldogs
