It took five months, but the field of 68 is set for the NCAA Men's Tournament.

Automatic bids were handed out to 32 teams, with the rest earning at-large tickets.

The No. 1 overall seed is Gonzaga (26-3), and the Bulldogs will be the top seed in the West. The other 1-seeds are Pac-12 champion Arizona (South), Big 12 champion Kansas (Midwest) and defending national champion Baylor (East).

There were some surprises, such as Duke, which struggled down the stretch but earned a 2-seed in coach Mike Krzyzewski's final season.
