The Memphis Tigers were rewarded for their 30-3 record and an undefeated CUSA schedule by being given a Two seed in the South Region in the NCAA basketball tournament.

The Tigers will face North Texas in New Orleans on March 15. If they win twice, they'll go to San Antonio for the regionals. If Louisville also wins twice, they'll face the Tigers for the right to reach the Elite Eight. Now that could be fun!

The four Number One seeds are Kansas, Florida, Ohio State, and North Carolina. The other Two seeds are UCLA, Georgetown, and Wisconsin. Go here for the complete bracket.
