<p>You accidentally placed Arizona State at the approximate location of U of Arizona (Tucson) and left Arizona off of the map, just to let you know.</p>
<p>Answer: Thanks. Here is a map of Arizona:<br />

<p>ASU plays in Tempe, just south east of Phoenix: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tempe,_Arizona<br />
And you can see in the first link that Tucson is considerably further south and east, and about 70 miles north of where Arizona’s diagonal border with Mexico becomes a latitudinal line.
Thanks for catching the AZ Wildcats oversight.</p></p>

Just to let you know, when you click to zoom in, there’s at least four teams mapped who aren’t in the tournament: Notre Dame, Auburn, Creighton, and St. Mary’s. There could be more, I just quickly looked.
Answer: Thanks very much. When I corrected for Arizona, I ended up re-inserting a preliminary map from before all the teams were announced (that I had failed to erase).

Georgetown is still on the map, but not in.
