First off, Tulsa isn't getting an at large. Doesn't matter how many more games they win. They have a NET of 75 (like, worse than Georgetown and St. Johns) and little chance to change it. What's more, Tulsa and the Turds play this weekend so one will take another L. If it's Wichita, their NET will drop further (last night's loss dropped them from 44 to 48). Memphis and Houston play. One's gonna lose (game is in Houston so prob Memphis, whose NET is 60).
Houston is the only AAC assured to make the tournament. Memphis and Tulsa are not getting at large bids. If Cincy or Wichita don't win a couple more games, they will be in trouble. If they do make it, they will be the type of seeds that you've "warned" us about re: Big East and our troublesome round robin (ie. seeds that don't make deep runs, as you've mentioned when talking out of the other side of your mouth).

After Uconn leaves as of this summer, not counting this year's tournament (when we will get the same or more bids than the Pac, SEC, Big12 and AACK) the Big East would have 286 bids on this chart, and the AAC will go down to 170, with the A10 quickly approaching. Better start printing up those Power8 T-shirts Stevie boy.

Memphis absolutely has a chance at an At Large. They are 21-9 and play @ Houston on Sunday. win that and they're 22-9 with 3 Q1 wins and a 7-6 away from home record. They'd probably enter the AAC tourney with a spot quite frankly.
Once they get into the tourney all these bubble teams play each other and someone has to win. And the competition is good enough to where the winner will improve their lot.
The AAC definitely won't have great seeds, but they are going to have at least 2 and maybe 3-4 teams make the tourney.

bullsh--. "Enter the tournament with a spot, quite frankly." Show me a bracket that has memphis in it right now. You can make shit up all day long, doesn't make it true. There are three current bracketologists listed above. Show me where Memphis is in any bracket right now. One bracket (CBS) has Houston in and Wichita and Cincy as first four out. ESPN bracket has Houston in, CIncy last four in, Wichita first four out. Bracketville has Houston in, and list CIncy (69 seed, so first team out), WIchita 70 seed, and Memphis 74.
