They certainly could go on a run but with Arkansas faultering there is room for both of us in the dance

Do we care who wins the VT Miami game? They have nearly identical records.

I guess I am being greedy but I am thinking both of those teams could fall on the wrong side of the bubble. Va Tech has a similar rpi to ours and only one top 50win.

Looks like both of those teams have tough games ahead.

Didn't have it on the list, but GW just hit a 3 to win by 1 against VCU...that hurts the Rams chances of an at large bid. They're still probably in but makes their margin for error much slimmer, will add them to the bubble list.

VT much more solidly in, I'd rather take the 1 in the hand method lol, looks like Miami is gonna get the win though.

Holy $h!t, refs put 0.4 on the clock and VCU runs an inbounds play to draw a foul on GW...defender guarding ball ran into a VCU guy standing there, usually a no call. VCU hits both FT's and gets the win.

That's 2 bizarre wins in a row for them.

Virginia Tech is a fraud. Bad non-conference schedule and really one quality win vs Duke without Grayson Allen at home. By the time it's said and done, with what they have left on their schedule they'll be an NIT team. Lots of wins over bad teams and just 1 over Duke.

Michigan blows out michigan State and we beat Ole Miss with both games at home, why did you flip them in the order?

After looking a bit more at each teams resume I felt it was the right call...I probably was a bit strong with my drop of Tennessee after the State loss, shouldn't have dropped them as much as I did.

Cal playing good ball lately road win tonight and I think they come off the bubble so far they are up 24-17

Probably not off the bubble but will be right there, they've played themselves into a great spot and a road win tonight will only strengthen their case.
