saw a bracket update from Lunardi that had Gonzaga as the 1st team out right now. Wouldn't that be something. And could that be enough to force Gonzaga to make a decision about their future?

6th team out in bracketville. And isn't it kind of good for Gonzaga to be in WCC, as they can always use the conference tourney as a clutch? Straight to the semis, too. Even if they're dead set on leaving the WCC, I think there's a pretty good option in whatever ends up becoming of OSU, WSU + MWC.

If they finish top 2. Which is in doubt this year.

ESPN said that they've been doing the bracketology for 22 years. And this was the first bracket ever that Gonzaga wasn't in the tourney.

Texas A&M maybe?

And also I think you might have to at least mention Florida Atlantic. Definitely a couple of real head scratching losses.

FAU will be one of the more interesting cases seeding wise. Not a lot they can do in AAC, and while ranked #10, Memphis resume is kind of falling apart tbh. I forgot about Michigan, but they weren't expected to be very good iirc.
