Same Story, Different Day

Congratulations to Syracuse and Houston who in a matter of 7 days got in, got dropped, got back in, and then got dropped out again. This time they may not be saved and would need a deep run in their conference tournament to get a bid. Replacing these two, hopefully for good are Illinois State, who beat Southern Illinois to finish second in the Missouri Valley, and Western Kentucky. The Hilltoppers get in just because nobody else wants to claim that last spot.
Congratulation to the Wrench Headed Bears of Cornell as they are the first team to clinch a bid in the tournament. I think they'll be seeded 13th and have the talent to at least keep it close against a 4 seed.
