They've only had like 9 incorrect picks in the last 6 years. Looks good for mu.

They also use the old RPI, and don't account for the quadrants. Not sure how accurate it'll be this year.

Upon looking at USC's resume, I'd add them to that list and make it 10 teams for 3 spots. USC's best win is MTSU. Legitimately no good wins other than that. They did not beat Arizona, UCLA, or Arizona State, or Washington in Pac 12 play. All 12 of their conference wins came over Utah, Oregon, Oregon State, Cal, Washington State, Colorado and Stanford

Alphabetically sounds so dumb to me.

Announcing the 32 auto bids first and then announcing the teams in order of rank from 1-36 sounds much more exciting and suspenseful.

And Memphis in the AAC. I think that's it for potential bid stealers. I suppose you could say USC in the Pac 12 but I'd imagine they are in regardless now
You think Memphis needs to win AAC tourney it just beat UC?

Good to know. They’re playing well right now but hard to believe they’ll get past UC and Wich St/Houston

Yeah. I'm more worried about the A10. URI down at half  and if they can't come back and if St Bonaventure loses it's a guaranteed bid stealer.

Bonnies have been playing very well lately tho.

Cincy starts the half on a huge run to take the lead, and maybe something finally is going our way.

Except that announcing them in seed list order provides some clues about seeding. They want to save that for later.

Depending on your pay service, you can see it on the CBS Sports App.

Next year, get the channel. Just downgrade your service in April.

I might add them back in if they lose tonight. All of the teams on my list are done playing so I’m focusing on them instead of a moving target. Plus, the consensus seems to be that USC is pretty safely in. I think it would be hard for MU to pass them.

Generally I'd agree. But dance card has them even with Marquette and Palm does have them out.

Huge 3 by URI to go up 6 with 20 seconds left.

Then St Joes answers with a 3 right back. URI up 3 with 10 seconds left.

Cincy up 9 under 2 minutes
