None of Indiana, Cal or Texas look like they want to dance.
Miami is solidly above the bubble.
Auburn tentatively gets the last at-large. New Mexico is their biggest competition. If both lose tomorrow
. VT would be in the conversation in that scenario, SDSU as well, maybe even Indiana still
Not sure where to put this but lmao fuck Liberty. Wouldāve loved to play them round 1 bc weād win by 40 but Iād rather them miss entirely.
These teams that really need to win are succumbing to pressure in these tournaments
Longhorns getting worked by SEC 15 seed Ole Miss.
Fuck Sean Miller too
Cāmon Texas. Itād be cool of you to avoid a humiliating defeat right now.
Northwestern up to 58 on kenpom. Them beating Purdue would be incredible.
You must not be familiar with the overall tradition of underachieving that is Sean Miller.
Thatās the spirit Lehigh

As of tonight hereās how Iām seeing the Bubble with my bracketology files.
Last 4 Byes: UCF, Santa Clara, Texas A&M, TCU
Last 4 In: SMU, VCU, New Mexico, Texas
First 4 Out: Auburn, SDSU, Indiana, Virginia Tech
Next 4 Out: California, Oklahoma, Seton Hall, Stanford
A lot of potential for this to shift with Auburn and Oklahoma having winnable games tomorrow. Would require a major upset but hell if Florida State wins tomorrow, they might be within striking distance. The bubble is so terrible this year and that final at large team is not going to be pretty.
Lunardi (yes I know heās bad at this) matched us up with them as our 13 of course. Thought they looked really good but I didnāt realize at the time that they got to play at home in the champ game
0% chance McNeese is a 13
I guess I shouldnāt say 0, the committee does dumb things. But they have the best WAB of any of the one bid league conference champs behind the cutline.
Oh no, the end of an era. ![]()

It was supposed to be in Tehran this year ![]()
Miami of Ohio about to go down!
Bubble is bad enough that I think they will still avoid Dayton, but that is a rough loss. It probably depends on where their WAB falls tomorrow. The 11 AM Eastern/10 AM Central tip is brutal.
Serious question: How does Lunardi still have a job with ESPN?
I personally donāt think heās terrible and helped bring a lot of attention to the space. I think of him like some of these legacy companies with outdated execs. Big names, helped stand up a ton, now arenāt as great but everyone still knows who they are even if there are a bunch of people under them that are much better.
Heās good on tv in like a lovable dork way. Plus he has the name recognition and kind of made bracketology mainstram
