The men's and women's NCAA tournament brackets are set and, as always, there are shocking selections and enough snubs to power the sports media world for weeks to come. Caroline Fenton, Isis "Ice" Young, and Jason Fitz dive into this year's NCAA tournament brackets and share their Selection Sunday reactions.
Caroline questions the inclusion of certain teams in the bracket, sparking a lively debate among the hosts.
