For the men, it's easy: Win it out. Last Bubble Team


For the women, 9-seed playing Oklahoma State at Stanford

First indication all year that the women are off the bubble. I like it.

In that scenario, we have to beat Wisconsin and then get to meet up with TCU again. Then it would be on to face Gonzaga.

Damn thatd be a fun first weekend of MSU basketball.

Not so easy to win out. TAM and Vandy playing well and USC gave bama all they wanted. Coming so close and losing at the end of OT like that on Tuesday was a crusher.

All I wanted for the first year from our new coach this season was to be competitive enough to be back in the conversation about the NCAA tournament again. He definitely accomplish that. I really did not see the back at the end of December.

Wisconsin has to play @ Michigan, #5 Purdue and @Minnesota. That's a tough row to finish on.

I know.

And @DawgatAuburn has mentioned that we don't necessarily HAVE to win out according to Torvik. That said, a 22 percent chance of not making it with a 2-1 finish is still too close to call as far as I'm concerned.

Oklahoma St also has a tough row to hoe as well with Kansas State, Baylor and Texas Tech.

The team you might want to pay attention to is Utah State. Their net is high 30's and they have Boise St. left to play which would probably be another Q1 win if they pulled it off. While they are currently in the first four out, they have a good chance of winning the Mountain West tournament and getting the automatic qualifier.

Yeah, they're in and off that awful prospect of an extra game.

With the pressure off, I'd like to see them go down to BR and compete with the Fighting Mulkies Sunday.

Considering they started SEC play 1-3, getting to 9-6 in conference is pretty damn impressive.
