St. Louis st bonaventure

If St. Louis wins, I think Bonaventure still gets an at large bid.

St. Louis for sure on the bubble and a loss and a few conference tourney upsets and they'll be out

Bonnies is in regardless

St. Lois is the play

You Guys follow everything

I’ll probably just blindly tail

I’m not sure the bonnies are in. They split with Vcu and Davidson, and lost against St. Louis in their only game. They will be on the sidelines for over a week while teams that get hot will get preference from the committee. Aside from winning the A-10, I don’t see much else with them. If they do lose and get in, I would be surprised if they aren’t playing Thursday. St Louis ain’t getting in if they lose tomorrow. They aren’t even in now.

I saw the first 4 out included Seton HALL St. LOUIS and Utah ST. 3 teams you do not want to play in tourney.

Yeah I like those teams more than some teams that are actually in. If Bonnie lost today (dog FWIW) they would be 2-4 against the A-10 top 4. Seton Hall in particular has a lot of talent for a team that’s in a dicey situation. A lot of unusual things to take into account this year that will never happen again (like st bon being 2-0 out of conference)

that's for sure

during selection sunday will they give the schools that just missed making the bracket this year, so that we would know who the replacements are, in case a team withdraws due to covid?

yes first four out will be named this year

after tuesday before the games start, there will be no replacements allowed

for the auto qualifiers, the conference chooses a replacement for the team

something else to consider for the bubble: one more team makes it because the ivy league isnt playing, so one less auto bid

CRAZY RULE IMO: no reseeding for the replacement team, so they could be like a 2 seed if the right team got COVID
