Indiana St was shown on Bracketville as #45- but they lost tonight at home vs Illinois St. Probably MVC or bust for them.

Texas A&M, shown at #31 just lost to Vanderbilt on the road. #235 in the NET. A Q4 loss. That'll get you on the bubble real quick.

pretty good first 2 days of the week for the Big East on the bubble I'd say. 4 teams right at the cutline lose Q1 shots that could have really propelled them.

Big East has to be concerned a bit. Things aren’t looking great at the moment.

I think 5 is very likely. I don't think more than that is all that realistic.

I'd probably say-
5- 80%
6-10%
7- 5%
4- 5%

The Mountain West gamed their schedules somehow. But at least we're getting revenge by cutting into the beginning of their 9pm televised games every night.

all it is really IMO is no seperation at the top. #1 team has 3 losses, then 4 others with 4, and 3 others with 5. Just a perfect storm to get a lot of teams in.

And none of them will get good seeds, resulting in zero second weekend representation. Quantity over quality.

Right. Top one on bracketville right now was Colorado St at #19- so a 5 seed, but they got beaten pretty good by #23 San Diego St. So maybe best seed being a 4 if they're really lucky.
