I've heard that too, but it seems crazy. They're just 1-3 against the top 50 (win over Cal), and a loss would put them at 5-9 against the top 100, complete with a pair of sub-100 losses (#125 UCLA, #251 Arizona State). What would make them in?

If Arizona is also in we have NO chance IMO.

I have no idea why Arizona would be in. Or even ahead of us. They're 5-9 against the RPI top 100. We're 7-11. Advantage us (slightly).

Their best win is Cal. Their 2nd best is New Mexico State. Our best wins are Florida (twice) and Vandy. Advantage us.

We have three sub-100 losses, they have two. But one of theirs is a sub-250 loss. Push.

My worry is their RPI and Kenpom are both ahead of us....

And my biggest worry is that freaking article that just came ou from the committee guy.

But the NCAA spokesperson said from Indianapolis that the 37 at-large selections include teams that could end up being automatic qualifiers through their conference tournaments. That means there could be additional at-large teams to fill those slots, according to the spokesperson.

The NCAA wouldn't name the schools. But that could mean bubble teams playing Saturday were already selected into the at-large pool since they had a chance to automatically qualify out of their conference. Teams that may have fit that criteria playing Saturday were NC State (ACC), Xavier (A-10), Arizona (Pac-12) and Marshall, which lost to Memphis -- now a lock -- in the Conference USA title game early Saturday.

Those last 2 sentences worry me. Makes it seem that Marshall and Arizona are both in...
