Now, that's no longer an issue, and you can view our mobile-friendly bracket below:
March is the time when college basketball's brightest stars can turn into legends.
Although he spent only one season at Syracuse, Carmelo Anthony forever cemented his place in college basketball lore by helping take the Orange to a national title.
Shabazz Napier and Kemba Walker carved their respective visages into the proverbial Mount Rushmore of Connecticut basketball after improbable championship runs.
And those are just a few of the more recent examples. Although it's not an every year occurrence, quite often there's that one player to emerge in the Big Dance and completely alter his collegiate legacy with an incredible string of performances.
The four players below have the most potential to produce the kind of tournament run that gets remembered for a long time.
Stars Who Will Swing NCAA Tournament
Jahlil Okafor, Duke
There are stretches during a game when Jahlil Okafor is simply unplayable. His pure strength and array of post moves make it almost impossible to stop him when he's got the ball in the paint.
Notre Dame had no answer for Okafor during Friday's ACC semifinal. The Duke big man went off for 28 points on 13-of-18 shooting and eight rebounds.
With that said, Okafor's struggles on defense severely hampered the Blue Devils, and he missed two critical free throws that could've gotten his team to within two points of the Fighting Irish in the dying stages of the second half.
That game illustrated both Okafor's skill and the fact that his poor free-throw shooting could be Duke's ultimate undoing. Sports Illustrated's Seth Davis called it the Blue Devils' "Kryptonite":
The freshman phenom could single-handedly take over a game and lead Duke to the promised land, or his aforementioned issues could end up haunting the ACC powerhouse as it pursues a fifth national title.
The Blue Devils are a talented team, but their chances of winning in March will lessen significantly if Okafor lays an egg in the NCAA tournament.
Frank Kaminsky, Wisconsin

Wisconsin is a team that relies on a lot of different players and uses its methodical style to slow the pace down to a crawl. KenPom.com ranks the Badgers 347th in adjusted tempo, just two spots ahead of Virginia.
You'd think that those two factors combined would preclude one player from having the kind of season that earns him award recognition.
On the contrary, Wisconsin's Frank Kaminsky took home the Big Ten Player of the Year honor:
The senior forward has been nothing short of marvelous this season, averaging 18.2 points and 8.1 rebounds a game this year, the former of which was tied for third in the Big Ten and the latter of which was second.
Diving into the more advanced metrics, Kaminsky also led the conference in player efficiency rating (35.5), true shooting percentage (.633), effective field goal percentage (.600) and win shares (8.1), per Sports-Reference.com.
Kaminsky went a bit anonymous in the Final Four against Kentucky last year, but he averaged 22 points a game in Wisconsin's three wins preceding its semifinal exit.
He's already proven himself in the NCAA tournament, and this may be the year Kaminsky takes a step into rarefied air.
Kyle Wiltjer, Gonzaga

Gonzaga's national title chances aren't dependent solely on the whim of Kyle Wiltjer's shooting, but it's a bit telling that in the Bulldogs' two losses this year, he combined to score 19 points on 8-of-27 shooting (.296)—he's averaging 16.7 points a game and shooting 53.6 percent from the field for the year as a whole.
By now, everybody knows Wiltjer's story. He was a periphery figure at Kentucky before transferring to Gonzaga last year, sitting out a season and emerging as a major star for the Bulldogs in 2014-15. The junior is a finalist for the Wooden Award.
"I feel like a different player," Wiltjer said of his career rejuvenation in Spokane, Washington, per Sports Illustrated's Phil Taylor. "My balance, my speed, everything is better. It’s like I’ve been rebuilt."
The Bulldogs have become part of the furniture in the NCAA tournament, but they've yet to have that one really great run under head coach Mark Few. He hasn't taken them past the Sweet 16, a stage he's reached on four different occasions.
The 2005-06 Gonzaga team was probably the best he's had in his tenure, and a big part of that was Adam Morrison. Morrison was the kind of talent who could carry a team in March, and he nearly led the Bulldogs to the Elite Eight.
While not the player that Morrison was, Wiltjer is the kind of singular presence who can take Gonzaga deeper in the NCAA tournament than it's ever gone before.
Delon Wright, Utah

The Utah Utes will be one of the sleeper teams to watch in the NCAA tournament. They're ranked eighth on KenPom.com, boasting the 18th-best adjusted offense and eighth-best adjusted defense.
Utah gets contributions from a lot of different players, but the straw that stirs the drink is Delon Wright. The senior guard leads the team in points (14.9 PPG) and assists (5.3 APG). Many Utes fans were stunned when he failed to win Pac-12 Player of the Year.
ESPN's Jeff Goodman feels that Wright has the kind of all-around game that sets him apart:
Wright isn't a high-volume scorer, but his ability to impact so many different facets of the game will allow him to set the tone for the Utes in the NCAA tournament. He doesn't have to drop 30 or 40 points to make his presence felt.
