The East Region of the Men’s Tournament can best be described as quirky — it features overall No. 1 seed , last year’s Final Four Cinderellas FAU and , the champions of four major conferences as the top four seeds , buzzer-beating Ivy Leaguers , and , who Sam Vecenie calls, “” as an 11 seed. As a public service announcement, be sure not to shorthand your printout with “SDSU” if you’re a San Diego State fan and are looking for upsets as well — they both fit the bill.

But this is a team that can make another run with Davis, Goldin and Martin — who stepped up last postseason and will need to do it again. —Jeff Goodman Profile Strengths: The Owls brought just about everyone back from a team that went to the Final Four a year ago, so they have a level of experience that no other squad can match. FAU also has one of the best guards in the country in Johnell Davis — who is capable of scoring with efficiency from all three levels.
