If you want to hold some hope that we can somehow still sneak a tournament bid on Monday, you are going to have to root hard for a LOT of bubble teams to lose early and often in their conference tournaments AND for chalky outcomes where the top team(s) of some of the lesser conferences win.
Yesterday we got a lot of help with Clemson, Florida, Houston, UCF and Florida St. all losing.
Today we are rooting against:
Louisiana Tech (vs. Marshall)
Southern Miss (vs. Rice)
Virginia (vs. North Carolina)
Oklahoma (vs. Baylor)
Houston (vs. ECU)
UCF (vs. Memphis)
Michigan (vs. tOSU)
Illinois St. (vs. SIU)
Indiana St. (vs. Evansville)
Teams we really need to win their tournaments:
CUSA: Florida Atlantic
AAC: ECU or UCONN
Big East: Creighton
Mo Valley: Dallas Baptist
Mountain West: Fresno St.
Sun Belt: Texas St.
Big West: UCSB (not a conference tourney, but they need to win 1 of the 3 game series vs. Cal Poly this weekend to clinch the title. They will get an at-large regardless so we really need only 1 team to get a Big West bid and not 2).
