so the Xavier fan list is long today-
Illinois
Tulsa
Richmond
Texas Tech
North Carolina
Auburn
UMass
Fordham(or Davidson???)

They need almost all of these to win today.

I should note on this- St Bonaventure and Saint Louis are 77 and 78 and they play each other today so 1 will get a good win and move up some. A10 is really dangerous for Xavier right now- SF could have Davidson vs St Bonaventure/Saint Louis winner and VCU/Dayton(if those 2 play- with VCU I think it's a lock, but Dayton maybe as well- the winner would probably be in).

If you have to worry about 9th and 10th teams out, you're not getting in.

right. I think for Xavier to have any shot at getting in just about, they would need Davidson to win out, and have neither VCU or Dayton make the finals. And that's a tough ask.

Rather than hopelessly wish for the stars to align for Xavier, I'm wanting Indiana to win here.

Indiana over Illinois, Texas A&M leading Auburn, LaTech leading North Texas. Definitely not a good start to the day for X.

don't think the North Texas result would impact Xavier.

lol, totally get that.

UConn with a really good shot to get a top 4 seed now. Will be interesting with Arkansas/LSU- not sure which way to go with that.

X is still last 4 in on 85 brackets. honestly they deserve to be in if you weight their entire season evenly
