RE: Bid Stealing Conferences
Coach P says Wofford doesn't deserve an at-large bid so nothing to see here.

Hoping none of our teams draw Wofford. Got a feeling they'll be playing in the 2nd round.

There needed help from the officials just to win this one.

The refs were fine. Fouls were dead even for the game. When you have a team that loves to jack up threes from unorthodox angles and spots, you need to be conscious not to make contact with them in the air. Don’t commit stupid fouls. Also the refs don’t make free throws for you; Wofford was automatic in the double bonus over the last 6-7 minutes. UNCG was just too inconsistent on offense. Great teams and great players take over in the last 5 minutes of close games.

Wofford is going to be a very tough out in the tournament. They have multiple scoring options, good back court play and ball movement, they get to the line and they hit free throws in the clutch.

Saint Mary’s won the WCC, so that's a bid stealing conference confirmed.

St Mary's was probably quite close to getting in already. Their Net was in the 30's prior to the game. They were certainly solidly on the bubble.

Someone needs to explain to me how Gonzaga can beat this team by 50 points a few weeks ago, and suddenly cant even find 50 points in this game.

Actually, does this really hurt USU? Aggies beat them, sooooooo it should push their rating up a bit.

Lunardi had the Aggies as a #10 seed so I'm pretty sure as long as USU doesn't choke early in the MWCT they'll be safely in.

On the other hand the NC State and Clemson game is basically an elimination game. Lunardi has both in but the loser will almost certainly fall out

I agree the loser is likely out. I'm not convinced the winner is in without winning 1 more.

Winning is definitely not a sure thing. Especially if the committee still consults RPI, I have no idea how you can look at that and think NCST is worthy. Outside of the ACC scedule, they might as well play in the Big South.

Other bubble watch matches to watch:
Georgetown (next for out) VS Seton Hall (10 Seed)
Texas (last 4 byes) vs Kansas
Penn St (Out, has been on a absolute tear tho) Vs Minnesota (10 seed)
Xavier (out) vs Creighton (first four out)
Arkansas (out) vs Florida (First four byes, i dont understand how)
Ohio State (first four out) Vs Indiana (first four out)

If saint johns or TCU lose today against teams they should beat they will probably be out as well

They aren't looking at RPI at all. Dead metric.

Yup. RPI is still used for women's basketball and other sports, though.

Looks like VCU is going down. Are they in even with a loss today?

So St Mary's and the A10 champ have stolen bids for sure.

And maybe Murray St did too if Belmont gets in.

They had to do something to make sure they weren't a 1 bid league.
