Wednesday Night Results

 

Congratulations to Texas A&M-CC, Colgate, and Montana State on punching their tickets to the Big Dance.  Auto Bids are done for a couple days so we focus on Bubble Teams going forward.

Teams that had a good day:

Wake Forest – hung on to their slim hopes of a at-large by sending Jim Boeheim into retirement.

Pittsburgh – I think they did enough for an at-large even if they get blown out by Duke today.

North Carolina – Crushed Boston College and now comes the question whether they need to win today or if this was enough.  I lean towards win today.

West Virginia – should be locked in after beating Texas Tech

New Mexico – slim hopes are alive and there are plenty of Q1 wins to have in the Mountain West tournament.

Oklahoma State – they probably took Wisconsin’s bid with last nights win.  Can they keep it?

NC State – dancing, that’s a lock

Arizona State – hanging on to that dream.  Need at least one more win, maybe two.

 

Teams that had a bad day:

Seton Hall – probably didn’t have a chance at an at-large anyway but now there is no chance.

Wisconsin – I guess they proved what we all thought; they weren’t a tournament team anyway.  Lost by 8 but it wasn’t close all game.  Their NET is not good enough for an at-large so they will fall out today.
