Just like he does every Monday, SB Nation's own Master  of Bracketological Administration Chris Dobbertean has released this week's updated tournament projections. I assume you read this every week like all the dutiful SB nationalists do, but in case you haven't yet, I'll fill you in on the good parts.

The Rundown

Top seeds: KansasSyracuseKentucky, Villanova
Last Four In: Illinois, South Florida, Dayton, Virginia Tech
First Four Out: Oklahoma State, VCU, Cincinnati, Old Dominion
Next Four Out: Mississippi State, Virginia, NorthwesternNotre Dame

Yeah buddy! The wins over Iowa and Michigan State have pushed us back into the field of 65, as of things an 11 seed. Not exactly the golden years of Dee and Deron,but given the deep whole this team dug for itself this year it is nothing to be taken for granted.

Let us not also forget that this projection doesn't even have UNC on the bubble. Sure they are the defending national champs, and will no doubt break the hearts of a would be Big Ten national champion again soon, but today I dance the dance of spite upon their hopes and dreams. In many ways I am a very petty person.

I'm assuming your dance of spite . . .

looks something like this. Or else, it’d just be silly to do one.

Hellz to the ya.

Now if we can only take care of the Badgers.

Plus, screw Dicky V and his man-crush on Duke/UNC. I will never take anything he says seriously.

I thought signs were banned in Assmebly Hall during games?

Impressive by that guy to sneak it in. Unless that picture was during college gameday. Then I take back my statement.
