so far UNLV not really giving Wyoming much of a challenge....37-29 14:24 left in the game in a low scoring game.

Colorado up 36-30 in Oregon at half
 
Unlv looks better

Wyoming very slow and unathletic

56-52 2:04

UNLV will be a threat to be a bid stealer..they can win this tourney but the MWC isn't getting 5
 
Marquette looks like they are headed to the 8 seed line, we shall see, can SHU bump up to 7

is there a possibly scenario that matches SHU vs Rutgers
Doesn't the committee generally try to avoid regular season rematches in the first round? I mean never say never, but based on my understanding it seems unlikely even if they end up on those seed lines.
 
UNLV misses wide open..Wyoming to line..looks like they survive and looks like they did just enough to make ncaa even though they arent that good

Poor execution and poise by unlv..poorly coached
 
Seems like this is not a great day for us. Not a bad day per se. But not great.
Assume we want VT to beat ND

Tough one because another Va Tech win puts them in serious contention

Irish are projected in but not safe. Not sure a loss knocks them out

Want Notre Dame

Also watch out Oklahoma is beating Baylor 25-21 3:32 left in first
 
What is the max bids for the ACC? Is it possible the committee takes all their bubblers?
if Va Tech ,makes it then Wake is out...they had 5 projected before so it will be 5...ND is not a lock if they lose this game badly, but they did finish 2nd and did beat Kentucky so that win was huge for them...yet they will be just 4-9 vs Q1/2 with this loss, 2-7 in Q1 alone
 
Marquette looks like they are headed to the 8 seed line, we shall see, can SHU bump up to 7

is there a possibly scenario that matches SHU vs Rutgers

Don't they try to avoid regular season rematches in the first round?

Edit: just saw you answered
 
last year was covid so things were different

history of schools who have received NCAA at large bids without being at least 4 games over .500

’88—LSU 16-13
’90—Kansas St 17-14
’91—Villanova 16-14
’01—Georgia 16-14
