Hopefully your NCAA tournament bracket has plenty of favorites in it like the Louisville Cardinals. (AP Images)

After taking a breather on Monday, it is time to start following your brackets again – or at least for those of you who still have decent-looking picks left. If you played it safe over the opening weekend, you are probably doing just fine.

Three No. 12 seeds won in the first round but a lot of people actually pick the No. 12 seed. Only three times since the field expanded has a No. 12 seed not won in the first round.

But looking at the Sweet 16, the only real surprise are the Arizona Wildcats.

Memphis has advanced to four Sweet 16s in a row, and Kansas and North Carolina are in their third in a row.

We are not saying the tournament is boring, but there are no Cinderellas, no schools like Davidson making a run.

That being said, for those of you sticking to the favorites, you must be pretty happy with your brackets so far.
