so a game we didn't recognize that is pretty big for Xavier to watch is the Florida vs Texas A&M game. The winner of that game plays Auburn tomorrow in a game that if they won that would probably be very bad news for Xavier.

For Xavier they're rooting today for:
Notre Dame
Michigan
Baylor

UNLV. Make the committee decide between X and Wyoming for Dayton if it comes down to it.

I love ACC fanboys saying about Wake Forest and their crap schedule that they can only play who is in front of them. When that is the typical line that they totally rail against when it's a team from outside the ACC against an ACC team.

I mean how is Wake in at all right now? 102 overall SOS 341 OOC SOS 1 Q1 win 2 Q3 losses.

I get what you're saying but I don't think that helps Xavier out- plus puts a UNLV team 2 wins away from being a bid thief anyways. Just my thought- you could be right though.

I'll say a team that Xavier should be fans of right now.... Arizona. If they lose in the next 2 days- means Pac 12 title game would have a Bid Thief option. be it Stanford, Oregon, or Colorado.

[stever20]

From Andy Katz-from the selection committee-
39 total teams in the Tournament
— 27 at-large teams
— 12 AQ’s clinched

31 teams under consideration

To the surprise of no one, Michigan is better with Martelli as head coach.

[kayako]

...and there goes Xavier's bid. It's better this way rather than getting emotionally invested for 3 days

Man. Does Michigan really deserve a bid? I feel like Indiana shouldn't be inside yet either. Either they swap each other. Or Indiana should stay outside still

I still think Xavier should be in the Last 4 in. Xavier's resume is comparable to both of them.
