Other teams considered, but that just missed the cut:

Good resumes, but need a little bit more:
Boston College, Georgia Tech, Virginia Tech, Massachusetts, Villanova, VCU, New Mexico, California, Kentucky

Other teams with a decent shot, but that really need to improve their resume:
Florida State, Charlotte, Duquesne, Temple, Cincinnati, Seton Hall, Missouri, Texas Tech, UAB, Wright State, Ohio, Creighton, Southern Illinois, San Diego State, Utah State

Still alive, but pretty much need a miracle:
Virginia, St. Louis, Providence, Minnesota, Nebraska, UTEP, Akron, Bradley, Utah, Washington, Georgia, Alabama, South Carolina, San Diego, Boise State

glad to see you giving some love to C-USA with Houston moving in. I've believe early on that either Houston or UAB should go, with the other probably seeing an NIT invitation.

UAB looked pretty darn good against Memphis last night...thought for a second they might pull it out. CDR is for real and so is Memphis. That game helped them alot in their quest for perfection. Tough close win on the road. Facing a hostile sell-out crowd. Mike Davis had to be pretty heartbroken about some of the calls late. The Tigers are definately the team to beat and February 23rd at Tennessee looks better and better. We'll see what happens. BTW I told you Jeff that NCSU is not tournament caliber. Computer numbers or not, they need some serious help now having dropped 3 straight.

Why again is Michigan State still a 2 seed? They are 4th in the conference now with back to back losses.

I suggest an update as Indiana is not a 7 seed.
