The NCAA Tournament is designed to provide a unique opportunity for teams from smaller schools and conferences to challenge college basketball's top-five teams. The article suggests that while some games are usually decisive, others also produce unexpected results in March Madness. The rankings were compiled to help people filling out their brackets for the 2026 NCAA Tournament. The most likely upsets are No. 11 South Florida over No. 6 Louisville, which is similar to the more talented Cardinals, but Louisville may struggle with their lack of star point guard Mikel Brown Jr. and his back issues may hinder their chances of winning the tournament. Other notable games include No. 13 Hofstra over No 4 Alabama and No 11 Texas over No 6 BYU, which could pose a challenge for both teams.
