Cornell

Congratulations to Cornell who snare the first bid of the year. They can rest knowing they will be a very dangerous 11-12 seed. Other things of note from yesterday is the Missouri Vally top 3 all advance to the semi-finals. Should be some interesting games there today.

Other Bids going out today:

Atlantic Sun
5 seeded East Tennessee State vs 6 seeded Mercer - yuck. Welcome to the play in game who ever wins

Big South
3 Winthorp vs 1 Coastal Carolina - CC has been solid all year and I expect them to win again today. A 15 seed is there spot

Ohio Valley
2 Morehead vs 1 Murray State - should be fun to watch, too bad it's up against Duke-UNC. Murray State is a 13 seed and could get pushed to a 12 if there are a lot of upsets. Morehead is a 14-15 seed.

Conferences kicking off today

Ameican East
Stony Brook has run away with this league; expect that to continue

Big Sky
Harold "The Show" Achineaux may not be there anymore but Weber State is still the team to beat

Summit
Oakland has a solid RPI in the 70's and is looking as a very dangerous 13 seed. Look out Tennessee

Sun Belt
Western Kentucky has owned this league for many years but they are only the 4 seed and have to play in the opening round. Troy, North Texas, and Middle Tennessee State all tied for first. The Sun Belt isn't as competitive as in previous years. Heck if I know who wins...let's just go with my second favorite jelly, Western KY.
