NCAA Tournament Elite 8 Preview/Fort Wayne! – Episode 145

The 2026 NCAADivision III Men’s Basketball Tournament is down to its Elite 8 with all eight teams heading to Fort Wayne, Indiana to play out the quarterfinals and semifinals on a neutral court.

We talk through how we got here with what took place during the special stand-alone Sweet 16 weekend then turn our attention to what we will see in Fort Wayne. With the help of the D3 Datacast efficiency ratings, we dive into the Elite 8 matchups to see who the favorites are and by how much with a projected computer line.

We then zoom back out to take an updated look at the overall bracket odds to see what odds the computer gives for each team to move on and ultimately win it all!

Join us in this edition of The D3 Datacast for that and more as we welcome in KJ and Ruda from the Not Even D2 podcast as guest pickers for this week’s Elite 8 picks and wrap up with one piece of mail in the mailbag.
