Selection Sunday is days away, and the men's NCAA tournament bracket picture is becoming increasingly clearer. And part of that is because the list of teams with auto-bids is filling out. Furman, which had not been part of the field previously, enters as a No. 15 seed with the Southern Conference automatic bid.

Will Power just looked at the question on the sheet in front of him and just laughed. "Ooooohhh," he said, followed by a word not suitable for print. The question was about him. When the 25 full-time INDYCAR drivers met with FOX Sports last month, we gave them a six-question survey to fill out. They didn't have to write in any answers — they just put a mark by which […]
