West Virginia 17-10 @ #20 Notre Dame (10 seed) South Florida 17-10 @ #2 Syracuse (First Four Out)
#8 Michigan State @ Minnesota 17-10 (Next Four Out)
Nebraska @ Purdue 17-10 (10 seed) VCU 23-6 @ N.C. Wilmington (Next Four Out)
Richmond @ St. Joseph's 18-10 (Next Four Out)
Georgia @ LSU 16-10 (Next Four Out) UCF 19-7 @ Rice (First Four Out)
UCSB @ Long Beach State 19-7 (11 seed)
Teams on the Bubble are bolded.
WV, USF, Minny, and St Joseph's all lost. I think all of them are done now. WVU still has a chance, but imo they need to win out and that won't happen with Marquette on the schedule.
Rice is beating UCF right now. Long Beach State plays later tonight.
Thursday's game
Alabama 17-9 @ Arkansas 17-10 (Alabama is a 10 seed, but Arkansas is still a final 8 team to miss out)
#17 Louisville @ Cincinnati 19-8 (12 seed)
USC @ Arizona 19-9 (12 seed) BYU 23-6 @ Gonzaga (12 seed)
Another one to keep an eye on:
Stanford @ Colorado
Bama vs Arkansas is a tough one, but I'd say go with Bama and knock Arkansas out. Arkansas is actually in more brackets right now than we are. Lunardi will have an update on Friday to his bracketology. Oregon should be in it now.
I saw tonight Joe has the ducks on the first four out now, nice to see them even in this postion. Also saw Rid with the game winning shot tonight, number five play on sportscenter tonight with Neil giving the usual Oregon quack shoutout.
How on earth is Arizona in everybody's bracket when we have a better record than them, a better RPI, plus we beat them on their own floor? It makes no sense.

Duh, Lute Ols-
yeah, you're right, makes no sense. Please also explain how Northwestern and Minnesota are ahead of the ducks...

2 reason. 1-Closer to the east coast media. Reason 2, they didn't lose to crappy ass Oregon St.

Actually I think the main reason is history more than anything else. But lost to UCLA who has the record as OSU.

Not really sure how the RPI works, but according to that... Arizona has 5 wins in the top 100 compared to our 2.

Farfield visits Iona today. Iona is 22-6 and will probably get an automatic bid, but they are good enough to where they might sneak in the tournament if the win the rest and lose their championship game.
Our win over Stanford and then their win over CU has really vaulted us up the RPI. Just last week we sat at 71. Guess we root for SU to win out so it helps us.
