NCAA Tournament 2026: Full bracket revealed for 68-team field
By Andrew Olson

It’s time for March Madness! The full bracket for the 2026 NCAA Tournament 68-team field was revealed on Selection Sunday. The top 4 seeds went to Duke, Arizona, Michigan and Florida.
Florida sets out to defend its national title. The Gators may have luck on their side. When UF won its first national championship in 2006, the Gators repeated in 2007. Florida had been the last school to repeat until UConn did so in 2023 and ’24. It was the Gators who sent the Huskies home in a memorable second-round game last year.
It just so happened that the past few weeks, Florida and UConn were largely seen to be battling for the final No. 1 seed. The Huskies got the better of the Gators in the regular season, but Dan Hurley’s team was still a No. 2 seed in Sunday’s reveal. The 4th 1-seed went to Todd Golden’s team despite an SEC Tournament loss to Vanderbilt.
Here’s a look at the full bracket:
