Is it me or do the Bubble teams not understand that to get in or stay in, one must win? An awful day for the bubble and no auto bids.
Out
Memphis - couldn't get the job done and unless UTEP loses Conference USA will remain a 1 bid league.
UAB - 44 points? That's all? 44 Go%&%^amn points? Shhhhh, you can say Go%&%^amn on a blog. It doesn't matter, nobody's listening anyway. Thank you Major League. The loss hurts but the fat that they never showed up is killer. UAB is done.
Kent State - the #1 MAC seed falls opening the door for Akron to claim a 14 seed.
Jackson St - missed this one two days ago. It's the SWAC so we're talking play-out game anyway
In
Illinois - I've said it plenty of times, beat Wisconsin and your in, lose and your out. An RPI in the 70's and losers of 5 of 6 is not the way to end a season
Rhode Island - Best of the last teams out is not saying much
Akron - MAC 2 seed
Arkansas - Pine Bluff - um, yeah.
Bubbles Popped
Cincinnati - needed 1 more win to be taken seriously
Bids handed out today:
Patriot
LeHigh vs Lafayette
Winner of this game will be in consideration for the play out game along with Ark-PB and Winthrop. Make sure you leave early to catch in on ESPN2
Bubble teams that need to win today
Illinois over Wisconsin - won't happen
Rhode Island over St. Louis - Rams win a close one
Mississippi over Tennessee - Should be fun, I'm calling the Rebel upset
Dayton over Xavier - Dayton's bid ends here
San Diego State over New Mexico - The Aztecs lose and are left out again
Washington over Stanford - Washington is starting to hit their stride
