Tuesday's games:
Mississippi State vs. Ole Miss
Maryland vs. Ohio State
Pittsburgh vs. North Carolina
Wake Forest vs. Boston College
Presbyterian vs. Liberty
George Washington vs. Rhode Island
Georgia vs.Kentucky
Vanderbilt vs. Texas A&M
Wisconsin vs. Illinois
West Virginia vs. Iowa State
Georgetown vs. Depaul
Dayton vs. Fordham
Boise State vs. Colorado State

So I take it that the bolded teams are either locks for at-large bids or have the best records of the auto-bids from (hopefully) one-invite conferences?

So TN probably needs to go 7-3 to have a good chance of getting in? 6-4 would require a lot of other possible bubble teams to limp to the finish and 8-2 means an NCAAT invite is probable?

7-3, need to go 4-1 at home and steal 3 of 5 on the road.

probably be better if A&M beat Vandy.
With Vandy's SOS they're one of the teams that could challenge for fifth in the SEC(rpi wise) if they should start winning consistently.
Of course we have to beat teams like Auburn if we want to stay in the race.

Vandy has a long way to go and we play them twice, therefore they have more of an impact on our SOS than A&M

Ole Miss because they are teetering on being a bad loss on our resume, we need them to stay top 100. Maryland because Ohio State would sneak into bubble talk with a win against them. UNC because Pitt is a bubble team. BC because Wake is a bubble team. Presbyterian because we played them this year, them winning helps our SOS. George Washington because Rhode Island is starting to enter the bubble picture. Kentucky because we play them twice and also Georgia with a win would get back into the bubble picture. Vanderbilt because we play them twice so impact on our SOS is greater. Wisconsin because we played them and also Illinois is a bubble team. West Virginia because Iowa State is a bubble team. DePaul because Georgetown is a bubble team. Fordham because Dayton is pretty safely in from the A10, we need some A10 teams to start losing (VCU, Dayton and Rhode Island). Colorado State because Boise State is on the bubble, and making the MWC a 1 bid league would be nice.

Need one of the next two. But still left with little margin of error. Win the next two and I'll feel pretty good
