7 teams for 1 spot

[Tulsa Brave]

A Dayton win would have made it easy to project the 68 team field. Now I can only safely project 67 in, with 7 teams battling for that final spot. None of the 7 are really deserving in my opinion, but here they are:

Alabama
UAB
Harvard
Boston College
USC
Georgia
Missouri State

I put them in the order that I think they rank, but quite frankly, they're all pretty equal. I give the slight edge to Alabama for spot 68.

The other 3 teams that I think will play in the play-in games are St. Mary's, Virginia Tech, and Michigan State.

Gotta give it to Harvard.... Those kids got shafted by the buzzer beater last night..... After probably the best season of Harvard basketball in 50 years. Sorry Missouri State, but I'm giving you a 0.001% chance of getting in.

I pretty much agree, although I'm throwing St Mary's into this group. Wouldn't be surprised if they miss.

Just curious, did you have Michigan and Illinois in?

Yes

 

[Bravesfan]

Yes

So do I, but in many other years they would not get in (see last year for Illinois).

I agree, not to mention Harvard beat fellow bubble teams Boston College, Colorado and one of three against Princeton. That's a MUCH better profile than MSU's is, something I now have to fully admit!
