TEAMS THAT I THINK ARE ON THE BUBBLE


So here's who I have on the Bubble... 13 spots are up for grabs
Those teams IN are noted with an asterisk (*).


Georgia Tech
Florida State
Clemson
UMass
Rhode Island
Villanova *
Syracuse *
W. Virginia
DePaul
Illinois *
Purdue *

NOTES:
- If Memphis loses in the CUSA Tourney, that league will get two bids.
- If Nevada loses in the WAC TOurney, that league will get two bids.
- If Butler loses in the Horizon Tourney, that league will get two bids.
- If Xavier loses in the A-10 Tourney, the league will probably get two bids.
- It looks as if the Colonial might get 2 bids, it would help Iowa if they only got one.
- If the locks in mid-majors take care of business in their conference tournaments, there might be room for Iowa looking at the current bubble teams.

This will be updated periodically, esp. when the conference tournaments are played.

EDIT 1 - Syracuse beats Georgetown. That's enough to get them in. They take the bid from fellow Big East squad, West Virginia. (02/26/07)
