But pretty much all the bubble teams we are competing with have been eliminated from their conference tournaments with the exception of Michigan (but I think they are probably a lock at this point).
Right now we just need at-large locks remaining in their tournaments to win the tournaments and not allow bid-stealers to win their auto bids.
Big East:
Creighton is currently up 9-8 in the 6th vs. Xavier. Xavier has to win this game and another game tomorrow to steal a bid. Creighton is in regardless so we have to have them win tonight OR tomorrow.
Big 10:
There are still 4 teams alive, but only 2 (Michigan and Nebraska) are tournament at-large possibilities. Unfortunately they are both playing each other right now so only one team will advance to the championship tomorrow, preferably Nebraska. We have to have that team beat either Minnesota or tOSU (who play LATE tonight) because either of those teams will steal a bid if they win the championship.
MWC:
Fresno is probably a lock and they play UNLV tonight in the championship. UNLV has to beat them twice, tonight and tomorrow, so we need Fresno to win one of those games.
CUSA:
FAU plays Southern Miss tomorrow. FAU is a lock and USM is a bubble team, but probably already in. We want FAU to win, but it probably doesn't matter.
AAC:
UCONN is a lock and they play Cincy in the championship tomorrow. We need UCONN to win that game.
Big 12:
3 locks remain and a potential bid stealer in TCU. We have to have TCU lose late tonight to Ok. St. or tomorrow to either Tech or WVU in the championship.
ASUN:
Liberty is a bubble team and they play against Stetson tomorrow. We need Liberty to win that game to get the auto bid and not have Stetson steal a spot.
