"&lt;p&gt;2011 NCAA Tournament Projection&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;In this bracket, the Southeast matches up with the Southwest, the East with the West in the national semifinals.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;With the addition of three at-large spots (increasing the field to 68 teams), there are now four play-in games, dubbed the \"First Four.\" Two games will match the tournaments lowest seeds, Nos. 65 through 68, with the winners claiming a No. 16 seed. The other two games will feature the last four teams of the 37 at-large qualifiers, with the winners likely receiving No. 11 or 12 seeds.The top-four seeds in each region, starting with the No. 1 seeds, receive geographic preference when possible. An imbalance in high seeds between regions (e.g. if more than two top-four seeds are closest to the same subregional location) may force a protected seed into a secondary location. &lt;b&gt;League winners (automatic qualifiers) are listed with their conference for clarity.&lt;/b&gt; Teams can be moved a seed line up or down to conform to bracketing rules. Auto bids in traditional one-bid leagues were determined by RPI, even if league games have been played (e.g. Morehead State has defeated Murray State in the Ohio Valley).&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;SOUTHEAST - New Orleans&amp;nbsp;Cleveland&amp;nbsp;1Ohio State (Big Ten)16Hampton (MEAC)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;8Old Dominion9Florida State&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Denver&amp;nbsp;5Louisville12Miami (Fla.)/USC&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;4Texas A&amp;M13Oakland (Summit)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Tulsa&amp;nbsp;6Notre Dame11Cleveland State (Horizon)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;3Missouri14Coastal Carolina (Big South)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Washington D.C.&amp;nbsp;7UNLV10Central Florida (C-USA)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;2Connecticut15North Texas (Sun Belt)&amp;nbsp;EAST - Newark, N.J.&amp;nbsp;Charlotte&amp;nbsp;1Duke (ACC)16American (Patriot)/Jackson St. (SWAC)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;8West Virginia9Gonzaga&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Tucson&amp;nbsp;5Illinois12Utah State (WAC)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;4Kansas State13UC Santa Barbara (Big West)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Chicago&amp;nbsp;6Minnesota11Washington State&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;3Temple (Atlantic 10)14Iona (MAAC)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Cleveland&amp;nbsp;7Florida10Baylor&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;2Pittsburgh15Northern Arizona (Big Sky)&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;SOUTHWEST - San Antonio&amp;nbsp;Tulsa&amp;nbsp;1Kansas (Big 12)16Lipscomb (Atlantic Sun)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;8Vanderbilt9Arizona&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Chicago&amp;nbsp;5Boston College12Oklahoma State/Cincinnati&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;4Purdue13Princeton (Ivy)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Tucson&amp;nbsp;6Tennessee11Drexel (Colonial)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;3San Diego State (Mountain West)14Portland (West Coast)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Charlotte&amp;nbsp;7Michigan State10Richmond&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;2Georgetown15Quinnipiac (Northeast)&amp;nbsp;WEST - Anaheim&amp;nbsp;Washington D.C.&amp;nbsp;1Syracuse (Big East)16Austin Peay (OVC)/Furman (SoCon)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;8Butler9North Carolina&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Denver&amp;nbsp;5BYU12Kent State (MAC)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;4Texas13Northern Iowa (Missouri Valley)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Tampa&amp;nbsp;6Washington (Pac-10)11Memphis&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;3Villanova14Vermont (America East)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Tampa&amp;nbsp;7Wisconsin10Maryland&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;2Kentucky (SEC)15Nicholls State (Southland)&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;b&gt;Last four out:&lt;/b&gt; Xavier, Marquette, Dayton, Wichita State&lt;b&gt;Bids by conference:&lt;/b&gt; Big East (9); Big 12 (7); ACC and Big Ten (6); SEC and Pac-10 (4); Mountain West (3); Atlantic 10, Conference USA, Horizon, West Coast  and Colonial (2)For more in-depth analysis, check out the latest Bubble Watch.&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;em&gt;Got a bone to pick with the Bracket Watch?
