A look at the NCAA Tournament bubble picture:
Holding on
We’ve reached the point where most bubble teams are done playing in their conference tournaments. It’s just a question of how many spots will be left for them.
That depends on whether there are any more bid thieves. No. 16 Memphis held on for a one-point win over Tulane in the AAC Tournament on Saturday, and Virginia Commonwealth advanced in the Atlantic 10. If either of those teams lose, it will enter the at-large pool, which would be bad news for the rest of the bubble.
The experts say …
ESPN’s last four in: Vanderbilt, San Diego State, Xavier, Boise State.
CBS Sports’ last four in: West Virginia, Boise State, Indiana, San Diego State.
Sports Illustrated’s last four in: Arkansas, San Diego State, Indiana, Boise State.
Washington Post’s last four in: San Diego State, Vanderbilt, Texas, Indiana.
ESPN’s first four out: Indiana, North Carolina, Texas, Dayton.
CBS Sports’ first four out: Xavier, Texas, North Carolina, Wake Forest.
Sports Illustrated’s first four out: Texas, North Carolina, Xavier, UC Irvine.
Washington Post’s first four out: North Carolina, Xavier, Boise State, Ohio State.
Up next
Another game to watch for a possible bid thief: UC San Diego faces UC Irvine on Saturday night in the Big West final. Bubble teams should be rooting for UCSD.
