I'm already annoyed at myself for putting in Syracuse. Here's a hunch that the committee devalues the road records of everyone, which is a dagger to Drake's resume.
I'm really, really not sold on Louisville or UCLA making this tournament, but I'm guessing the squeeze happens to the Mountain West schools instead.

The 2 line: Alabama, Ohio St, Iowa, Houston

Wichita State and Drake are the 2 most interesting decisions for the committee.
I wonder how much stock the committee will put in the idea that Drake has suffered all of its losses and decline in play after the injuries, one of which is permanent. I think if this is on their mind they will leave Drake out.
