Actually, TAMU is the second to last team with a bye. Notre Dame would be the last team with a bye.

5-8 teams in tournament(last 4 byes) ,,Texas A&M, Notre Dame
1-4 teams in tournament(last 4 in)- San Diego State,Davidson,Ohio St,Colorado
1-4 out of tournament(1st 4 out)- Vanderbilt ,Syracuse, Georgetown, Houston
5-8 out of tournament(or next 4 out)- NC State, Texas Tech, Iowa, New Mexicostever20

incorrect. San Diego St is MWC champion, thus not eligible for the play in games. Notre Dame is the 33rd of 36 at large teams.

^ My bad. You are correct.

^ My bad. You are correct.

no worries.

if we're going to see some Big East teams soon, I hope we see a Big East team or two in the next 6. that would put the teams on the 10 or 11 seed line- and not on the 8 or 9 line. Much greater chance of advancing far with a 10 or 11 than with a 8 or 9.

You realize this isn't the actual tournament, right?

There is that... It's just funny how if this was the list and revealed like this- that you would rather be in the 37-41 range than the 29-36 range. I mean, see Butler and Providence last year. They would have been so much better off being 10's rather than 8/9's.

I do think that this projection shows a good thing in the fact that the Big East is a whole lot more respected than before due to Nova winning the tourney.

Gumby - im not sure he does.

I've had that thought ever since this came out: this is no more or less valid than any of the nine dollar magazines at the gas station.
