Horizon League

Believe it or not, conference tournaments commence on Monday as the Horizon League kicks us off. Opening rounds are at the higher seeds with the semifinals and final played in Indianapolis.

Wright State is the regular season champ and 155th in KenPom. 2nd place Robert Morris is 147 and Oakland is 157. They’re the only 3 teams with a positive net rating. Northern Kentucky is 159 in KenPom and Youngstown State is at 200.

15-seed territory here and 16-seed if we get an upset champ, something this league does from time-to-time, though not the last few years. The best non-con win was by Robert Morris over Illinois-Chicago. Oakland played the toughest schedule.

The pick: Robert Morris
