Fairfield playing Canisius at 10:00am today in their conf semis - VU fans rooting for the one loss Fairfield team to win their tourney to avoid a possible bubble team and make that win look better and better for VU
Ivy League semis start today (and yes I talked about some games last weekend but that was still the regular season, sorry). Princeton looks to be a lock so want them to win the next two and Columbia to lose one of the next two (preferably today).
MTSU playing their semifinal game , I think they would be a strong bubble team if they were not to win their conf tourney (they have a win over Tennessee on a neutral court and don’t have a bad loss with a record of 27-4).
Drake at 26-5 playing their quarter final game in the MVC looks to be a tourney team so need them to win their conf tourney.
There are think at least 3 conf tourney games with teams of 4 losses or less today besides the ones I mentioned. I’m not real sure any of them are strong bubble contenders but just in case those teams are
Stony Brook (best win is Columbia) at 25-3 a couple of losses that will be considered questionable
Toledo 26-4 best win Michigan and Ball St, only one bad loss to Cincinnati (finished under 500 and 13th in B12)
Ball St 28-4 Best wins Toledo and I guess Georgia, only one bad loss to Northern Illinois.
Of note Ball St and Toledo are both in the MAC so probably prefer one of them lose today. Toledo losing by 8 early 3rd qtr - again don’t really think either of these teams are strong bubble contenders but listing just in case.
