Bubble/Tournament Watch 2/24/23

good result for the league- Miami loses on a last second 3.

After making their own 3 with four seconds left to take a two point lead. This is Bonkers.

it really feels like today is an uptick like the switch has turned for March.

Joe Lunardi mid today had Dayton as the 11th team out.

They lost to George Mason by 5 tonight. oops.

killer day for the MWC today. New Mexico probably out now. And Boise needs a win over San Diego St on Tuesday or they're in deep trouble.

With 4 teams in the bubble, odds of MWC tournament stealing/taking a bid increases as well. I think New Mexico is placed too high here, but still think MWC is set up well to take 3-4 bids as long as the top 5 avoid bad losses.

Problem is-
Utah St and New Mexico right now are on the wrong side of the bubble, by a bit. UNM has no one good left, so not much chance to lift themselves up.

I think San Diego St obviously is in. I think Nevada is probably in. Boise and Utah St play each other. I think winner is in, loser is out. So 3 bids tops for them. Yesterday took any shot IMO of 4-5 bids(w/o a bid theif).

A pair of pretty good results with Northwestern and Illinois going down. Not too sure what I'd prefer for the other 2 B10 games.

Michigan hits a prayer for three at the buzzer to force OT against Wisconsin. Not sure what the desired outcome is.

I think Wisconsin would have been better- rather see them in the tourney instead of Michigan.
