As the calendar moves to mid-March, that means it is time for one of the greatest traditions in sports, March Madness. Fans have been waiting for this since the conclusion of the event last year and now all of the brackets have been revealed.
Newsweek Sports has you covered with expert predictions for each. Here is the entire bracket for the South Region of the tournament.
This bracket has some of the best teams in the entire country and should be exciting. Auburn is out to prove that their loss in the SEC Tournament was a fluke while others will be looking to knock them off.
There are some sleeper teams in this bracket, including Yale and Creighton. But the games will all decide this bracket and we never know what to expect.
Here are expert predictions for the entire South bracket:

Sweet 16
No. 5 Michigan vs No. 1 Auburn: Michigan
No. 3 Iowa State vs No. 2 Michigan State: Michigan State
Elite Eight
No. 5 Michigan vs No. 2 Michigan State
We have a matchup between the regular season Big Ten winners, the Michigan State Spartans, and the Big 10 tournament champions, the Michigan Wolverines.
The Elite Eight matchup in this bracket sets up an inter-state rivalry. The two rivals will meet again and the Wolverines will be looking for some revenge. Michigan State took both games this season, fairly easily.
Michigan will be out for blood and they will enter this game on fire. But Tom Izzo’s squad seems different this season and they advance to the Final Four for a chance to win the title.
This team is loaded and will show everyone why they were the best team in the Big Ten all season long.
South bracket winner: Michigan State Spartans
