so looks like end of the year we're going to wind up having 3 bids stolen during conference tournaments.... Va Tech, Texas A&M, and Indiana. The 3 teams that lose bids ironically look like the 3 teams that last Monday were the last 3 teams in- Xavier, Wake Forest, and SMU.

Xavier just gotta hope Davidson wins and see if the committee has them a spot or two higher than most bracketologists. To think that ACC and SEC bid thieves might have cemented their demise...

I hate to say it but I thought the ACC had the potential to do that. And it could have been worse TBH if Wake had beaten Boston College.

I think it's still pretty unlikely the ACC matches the Big East's 6 teams, but would be extremely disappointing if it were to happen. My guess is 5 and 6.

But hey, even if it were to happen it wouldn't be a bad problem to have by any means. A year ago we needed Georgetown to win the BET just to get to 4 bids.

Yale wins so Princeton goes to the NIT

St John's going to be right on the cutline for the NIT it seems.

Yep, Princeton (not Yale) lost. Looks like we're going to be the final team in for some bracketologists.

Davidson playing some horrific D down the stretch. I've never seen a team score 3 straight and-1s.

so Richmond makes it 4, with Notre Dame the possible 4th team out as a result. So all in all, the ACC could wind up a net negative.
