March Madness is here and people are furiously filling out their brackets, so SB Nation is here to help. The 2012 NCAA Tournament starts with First Four matchups on Tuesday, and SB Nation's Matt Ufford sat down with Nick Fasulo of searchingforbillyedelin.com to break down the South bracket in greater detail.
