2 blue blood schools who have had great recent tournament success and just arent very good this year.
ucla just got embarrassed in the pac 10 tournament in los angeles by oregon, and needed ot to beat washington st without klay thompson the game before that.
michigan st has 14 losses and is only in the field thanks to such a weak bubble and a great nonconference SOS, and might not even be in if not for playing their game of the year against purdue in the big 10 tournament.
