Tourney Preview Update, Monday evening

  • In the WCC, San Diego upset Gonzaga for the automatic bid there. San Diego just knocked someone off the bubble. It could have been fellow WCC team St. Mary's
  • Davidson held serve, winning the Southern Conference final.
  • In the Summit, Oral Roberts and IUPUI advanced to the final, where they'll play for the lone bid in the conference.
  • In spite of being outnumbered 2-1, George Mason defeated William and Mary to advance to the NCAA.
  • Siena defeated Rider to win the MAAC.
  • Middle Tennessee State upset South Alabama to advance to the Sun Belt Championship against Western Kentucky. The South Alabama Jaguars have never recovered from Terry Catledge's departure in 1985. South Alabama is 26-6 and may have just burst someone else's bubble.

IMO, South Alabama's loss and San Diego's upset W over Gonzaga burst the bubbles of two of the three: Arizona State; Illinois State and St. Mary's.

I'm rooting for the American Eagles in the Patriot League Championship Game. One of 48 Division 1 schools to never make an appearance in the NCAA Tournament.
