The selection committee’s decisions were influenced by recent performances and injuries, leading to notable seed changes and the exclusion of teams like Auburn, which sparked controversy. Nebraska, preparing for its first tournament game since 1986, hopes to break its winless streak as it faces Troy, with strong fan support expected due to the team’s improved performance and favorable location.

OCEARCH tracked a massive 1,400-pound great white shark, named Breton, off the coast of North Carolina this weekend. Breton's migration data showed that the shark pinged off the coast of North Carolina in late March of 2023, indicating that the Outer Banks are a common spring staging area for great whites before they migrate north for the summer. OCEARCH's data provides insight into the behavior and migration patterns of great whites, which can help inform conservation efforts and protect these animals.
