Consider them bounced. Temple is in regardless, but it makes the road easier for one of those A10 bubble teams (St Joe's, Xavier, Dayton) to grab that autobid.

Heck, UMass is on the bubble if anyone else in the A-10 sans St. Louis and Temple is.

NC State's likely played themselves back in.*
*By this I mean everyone ahead of them has played themselves out, and NC State avoided doing that.

Refs just missed two OBVIOUS goaltendings within 2 minutes in the UC-Syr game. Only in the Big East...

Well, if the lights go out in Kansas City at least Baylor can usher everyone out with their glow-in-the-dark unis.

La Salle really just lost 37-29 against Saint Louis? Look out, we got some offense over there.

Baylor is up 43-35 at half on Kansas. I don't think I can remember being less impressed by 2 probable #1 seeds then I've been with Kansas and Syracuse this year (not that there's any shame in losing to Baylor - I've been saying it all year).
One of them will probably win it all and make me look like a dumbass, but I can't believe either of them have won as many as they have.

Helluva rally but just couldn't finish the comeback. I am a bit disappointed but I (obviously) am wanting a national title far more than I wanted the BET. Still a #1 seed, get your mind right and get ready to play your best ball when it really, really counts.
Congrats to Cincy. They played a whale of a game.

Perry Jones has come out aggressive in the Big 12 tourney. He's only 7/18 tonight, but he just made a nasty post move to put Baylor up 67-62.

Tennessee literally staying alive. Skylar McBee just hit a 30-footer, banked in...to tie it. Heading to OT.

Mississippi beats Tennessee in New Orleans.
The freaking Ole Miss Rebels are probably now on the bubble line...crazy.

Xavier down 10 at half to Dayton. Arizona down 7 at half to Oregon State.
Looks like Colorado State and SDSU are playing a good one right now. Unfortunately I don't get CBSSN or whatever that station is called.

Murray State at 30-1 would be a cinderella in name only. If we're talking Final Four for a team not seeded in the 1-3 range, this year, that's a cinderella no matter what league they come from...

Colorado State falls by 10 to SDSU.
Miami down 9 in the 2nd half to FSU.
Xavier and Dayton in a battle late.
Arizona is going to advance to the Pac 12 Finals.
Bubble teams need to hope for California to win, and limit the Pac 12 considerations to 2 teams.

Likely Nevada/New Mexico State #3 tomorrow night. That should be a nice game to finish out the night watching...two dangerous teams.

Vandy plows Georgia, setting up a potential UK-Vandy final, they've been one of the few teams that can match up with the Cats.

Arizona - Colorado final in the Pac-12, so bid stolen there. Possibly from fellow Pac-12 team Washington.
If it gets more than 2 bids it would be a disgrace.
Louisiana Tech beats Nevada. Wolfpack's luck finally ran out. They went 13-1 in the WAC, but won 9 conference games by single-digits and 5 of them by four points or less. No top 50 wins and only 4 in the top 100, so I'd say they have 0 chance of an at-large.

Memphis is rolling. They could be terrifying for a 2-seed in the 2nd round.

Memphis probably moving up to a 6 or 7. I'm glad, I don't want UK to see them in round 2...

Jimmy Dykes thinks the fact that Kentucky's players don't have headbands or 1 sock higher than the other means that they'll have long NBA careers.

Donovan continued use of letting Walker and Boynton fire away befuddles me. They absolutely kill Florida with their poor shot selections and decisions.
