Lunardi's Bubble Watch Updated this Morning (March 9): Last Four Byes Providence USC UCLA Texas Last Four In Oklahoma Alabama Middle Tennessee Louisville First Four Out Oklahoma State Notre Dame Arizona State Syracuse Next Four Out Marquette Baylor Penn State Nebraska

I've never heard them publically single out a team like this, let alone this much. There must be some substance to us having a shot at a bid given they've spent so much time and energy campaigning against us.

I'm with you. But do we want to chance it?

I wonder if Lunardi is any good at bagging groceries...

Friday's Games of Interest: VCU/Rhode Island - need URI to get the autobid Texas State/Louisiana - need Louisiana to get the autobid as well Alabama/Auburn - down with Bama Georgia/Kentucky - end UGA's hopes Western Kentucky/Old Dominion - with Middle Tennessee out, I think we need WKU to get the autobid Richmond/St. Bonaventure - going for URI autobid and the Bonnies dropping this one Providence/Xavier - stop the bleeding Kent State/Buffalo - we need Buffalo to win the autobid Mississippi State/Tennessee - keep MSU out of the conversation Kansas State/Kansas - might as well go for RPI and KSU dropping Butler/Villanova - might not matter, but need Villanova UCLA/Arizona - really need UCLA to drop out UCF/Houston - going with RPI; Wichita State or Cincy can get the autobid San Diego State/Nevada - really need Nevada to get the autobid Arkansas/Florida - may not matter, but knock off Arkansas Oregon/USC - this one is tough; USC might be in, but why not give it a shot Seattle/New Mexico State - need NMSU to get the autobid

Updated through Thursday's games. All remaining autobid opportunities still have a #1 seed except for C-USA. That was Middle Tennessee that fell to Southern Mississippi and still has an opportunity to steal an at-large bid.

Updated.

Utah can't get this game to overtime? They're clearly not as good as the rest of the Pac-12. Lunardi might knock them down into the "Last Team In, Just Ahead of Nebraska" part of the bubble.

Fixed that for you.

Other people might argue that...

And Iowa State jumps us.

And Boise State will still remain above us.

Updated. Only four bubble teams remaining (in Lunardi's latest bubble watch magic show).

The Big 12 is so deep that they're going to have a #1/#4 and #2/#3 match-up in the semifinals tomorrow.

There's right ways to do it...and then there's Big Baller Brand ways to do it https://www.sbnation.com/college-basketball/2018/2/2/16964568/lavar-ball-pro-league-recruits-kentucky-syracuse-turned-down

There's absolutely no reason to call any university out unless you have an agenda to make a point to the committee. We get it, Lunardi. You hate us and don't respect us. Cool.

I have no words. I'm not sure what to say. That's ignorant.

Lunardi probably still puts them ahead of us on the bubble...

Updating throughout the day.

This second batch of games is making me real nervous right now.

How is it predictive metrics when the season is over for them now?
