According to a data crunch by the sports entertainment website sportsbetting.ag, 22 states are rooting for the No. 3-seed Wolverines to win it all in San Antonio.

That's based on geotagged twitter data of more than 260,000 tweets that include fan hashtags such as #goramblers for Loyola-Chicago and #goblue for Michigan. You can see the map below.
