Stony Brook (17-8) (10-2) RPI 177 SoS 319
At least Vermont won @Yale and N-Illinois St. Frankly, all the profiles in A-East suggest
play-in games, but Vermont has a reasonable shot of avoiding. There's not much to see here.

Cincinnati (23-3) (12-1) RPI 16 SoS 81
Vital signs: 6-3 R/N, non-con
SoS 103, 5-3 vs. Top 50, 8-3 vs. Top 100, avg W/L 156/35
Quality wins: UConn, N-Pitt,
@Memphis, @L-ville, SMU, NC St?
Bad losses: perhaps @SMU and N-Xavier
if they want a truly high seed
Acing the American schedule to date has put them in a good position for
a high seed; just not 1 or 2. All 3
losses are R/N losses against decent but not great teams, and road wins at
Memphis and L'ville erase those sins.
Memphis (18-6) (8-4) RPI 33 SoS 61
Vital signs: 7-4 R/N, non-con
SoS 71, 3-6 vs. Top 50, 4-6 vs. Top 100, avg W/L 178/26
Quality wins: Gonzaga, @L-ville,
N-Oklahoma St and LSU
Bad losses: swept by UConn...OSU
ended up being a split...all 6 losses inside top 50
A pretty standard lock profile at this point. They've got some high profile games left in
conference play, so the seeding may be variant in the next month, but it'll
take losses in all of them to bring the bubble into play.
Connecticut (20-5) (8-4) RPI 24 SoS 63
Vital signs: 7-3 R/N, non-con
SoS 67, 3-4 vs. Top 50, 7-4 vs. Top 100, avg W/L 145/61
Quality wins: Florida, sweep of
Memphis, Harvard and N-Maryland?
Bad losses: @Houston...I suppose
Stanford?
The sweep of Memphis helps bolster the lack of quantity in the
profile. Should be safe for good, but
they have 3 high-profile games left in the American. I'd get a couple of them to make sure. The real trick is finding an appropriate seed
for them, especially with that Florida lynchpin.
Louisville (21-4) (10-2) RPI 34 SoS 97
Vital signs: 8-2 R/N, non-con
SoS 156, 3-4 vs. Top 50, 3-4 vs. Top 100, avg W/L 181/24
Quality wins: @UConn, SMU and
USM at home?
Bad losses: none, perhaps home
to Cincy and Memphis should've been taken care of
Their non-con still has the same holes it always had. Win at UConn is frankly saving their bacon
right now. They've got shots at Cincy
and Memphis coming, but they're roadies.
Better win one, or we'd have to revisit the lockbox status. This is an eye test team right now.
Bubble
SMU (20-6) (9-4) RPI 37 SoS 117
Vital signs: 7-6 R/N, non-con
SoS 282, 3-3 vs. Top 50, 4-4 vs. Top 100, avg W/L 180/63
Quality wins: Cincy, UConn,
Memphis (all at home), @Wyoming?
Bad losses: @USF, @Temple, @Arkansas? all 6 losses are R/N
The good news is they're winning the home games against quality
teams. At least it's something in their
pocket. Road chances at UConn and
Memphis still on the board. A split
should be enough, but if not, that non-con SoS is going to be a significant
issue.
No postseason
Houston, Rutgers, South Florida, Central Florida, Temple - behind SMU,

Quality wins: Nova, Duke, UNC,
Pitt at home; @Pitt, Minny-Cal-Baylor in Maui
Bad losses: no
The real question is what to do with them if they start losing. Just estimating, they've got to lose 3 times
to lose the 1 seed at this point.
Duke (20-5) (9-3) RPI 8 SoS 9
Vital signs: 6-5 R/N, non-con
SoS 19, 4-3 vs. Top 50, 9-4 vs. Top 100, avg W/L 117/38
Quality wins: Michigan,
Virginia, N-UCLA, @Pitt
Bad losses: @Clemson and Notre
Dame look bad
Those 4 wins listed above might be their only 4 wins vs. tournament
teams, despite the sterling computer numbers.
This could be an issue in seeding.
A sweep of UNC and Syracuse could fix a lot of ills, or an anti-sweep
could actually push them down some seeding lines.
Virginia (21-5) (12-1) RPI 18 SoS 32
Vital signs: 9-3 R/N, non-con
SoS 43, 3-3 vs. Top 50, 9-5 vs. Top 100, avg W/L 138/31
Quality wins: UNC, @Pitt,
N-SMU? @NC St and FSU?
Bad losses: perhaps @Tennessee
and Green Bay
0-3 vs. Top 25 might be a slight ding when it comes to protected seeding
chances, but they're safely in the tourney.
Non-con whiffs against Wisky and VCU hurt right now.
North Carolina (17-7) (7-4) RPI 30 SoS 14
Vital signs: 5-4 R/N, non-con
SoS 22, 5-3 vs. Top 50, 8-5 vs. Top 100, avg W/L 123/70
Quality wins: @Michigan St,
Kentucky, N-Louisville...Pitt, N-Richmond is gaining speed
Bad losses: @UAB, Miami, @Wake,
Belmont
The consistency in ACC play is helping to erase the bad loss sins. At this point, bad loss avoidance is much
more important than getting more quality wins.
They'll become very hard to seed if they do get more signature wins,
though.
Bubble
Pittsburgh (20-6) (8-5) RPI 32 SoS 46
Vital signs: 7-3 R/N, non-con
SoS 204, 1-6 vs. Top 50, 6-6 vs. Top 100, avg W/L 155/13
Quality wins: N-Stanford...@NC State
and swept Maryland? Clemson at home?
Bad losses: all 6 are inside the
top 30
Um, at some point, you need quality wins. And they're out of chances against the top
4. Any loss now would be seen as a bad
loss (although @Clemson wouldn't be horrible).
All of a sudden, this is a profile in trouble, with no heft. This team is not safe, folks. Better win.
Florida St (15-10) (6-7) RPI 60 SoS 51
Vital signs: 7-7 R/N, non-con
SoS 86, 2-6 vs. Top 50, 5-8 vs. Top 100, avg W/L 168/41
Quality wins: N-UMass, N-VCU, uh
@Clemson and Wake?
Bad losses: Miami, Clemson,
@Maryland, @NC State, etc
A big slide has taken them on the brink of the bubble, and those
non-con results are the only thing really keeping them alive at this
point. They've got UNC and @Pitt coming
up and may need a sweep.
North Carolina St (16-9) (6-6) RPI 51 SoS 26
Vital signs: 4-5 R/N, non-con
SoS 116, 0-7 vs. Top 50, 5-8 vs. Top 100, avg W/L 159/42
Quality wins: @Tennessee, and
we're done here
Bad losses: NCCU at home,
probably. @Wake
The profile obviously needed the Syracuse upset, and didn't get
it. We're pretty much done here.
Clemson (15-9) (6-6) RPI 77 SoS 93
Vital signs: 5-7 R/N, non-con
SoS 275, 1-5 vs. Top 50, 3-7 vs. Top 100, avg W/L 199/56
Quality wins: Duke, @FSU
Bad losses: @Auburn, @Notre

Barely hanging on thanks to the Duke win. We're pretty much done here too.

less than 6 losses in conference play.
Mercer won at Ole Miss and beat Seton Hall so that helps explain the
computer numbers and reasonable 13 seed chances.

Bad losses: both are inside Top

Finally, a bonafide win to help support the resume. @VCU, @UMass, Dayton, GWU still on the

Quality wins: N-New Mexico,
@GWU, N-BYU, St Joe's and Provi...and more marginal wins
Bad losses: George Mason? ugh.
Also @St Bonaventure
Big win at GWU helps stem the recent slide. GMU is the one loss that really stings - the
others are R/N and explainable. But 12
top 100 wins and 11 R/N wins are too good not to lockbox right now. Just stop losing marginal games.

Quality wins: @Virginia, GWU,
Richmond, @Dayton and Belmont?
Bad losses: @UNI, N-FSU?
All losses are R/N, which slightly helps. This might be a conservative call, but I'm
not going to lock them in at this time.
They probably need to avoid disasters more than anything else.
George Washington (19-6) (7-4) RPI 36 SoS 87

Quality wins: N-Creighton, VCU,
N-Maryland? eh
Bad losses: @LaSalle and
N-Marquette, perhaps
Two whiffed chances vs. UMass and at VCU mean no lockbox. They'll have to sweat a bit more. However, they have a trump card against
Creighton to play if they need it. In a
similar situation to VCU.
St Joseph's (17-7) (7-3) RPI 43 SoS 61
Vital signs: 8-4 R/N, non-con
SoS 135, 2-5 vs. Top 50, 5-6 vs. Top 100, avg W/L 160/49
Quality wins: UMass, VCU,
@Dayton?
Bad losses: @Temple...couple
marginal ones like N-LSU, @Richmond
This is a profile almost completely built on their conference
play. Their non-con is going to hurt
them, period. The fact that the
signature wins came at home means there's work left to do. This might be a one-game season for St Joe's
- @GWU in a few weeks.
Richmond (17-8) (7-3) RPI 40 SoS 48

Quality wins: UMass, St Joe's,
Dayton
Bad losses: @Wake, @St
Bonaventure, losses magnified by the fact they have no top 100 road wins
Significant home court bias in this resume, which probably means
they're on the outside right now. The
problem is they're out of road chances against better teams. No choice but to hold home court against GWU
and VCU and hope.
Dayton (17-8) (5-5) RPI 58 SoS 69
Vital signs: 8-4 R/N, non-con
SoS 89, 3-5 vs. Top 50, 6-5 vs. Top 100, avg W/L 151/78

in Maui, GWU, @Ole Miss
Bad losses: @URI, USC, @Illinois
St is a trio of suck
Still getting a courtesy look because the wins compare favorably to
other bubble teams. If they get hot,
they can rally back to the good side of the bubble quickly.

Still need to work on building profile depth to justify a 1 or 2

They're making this harder than it has to be. A brutal R/N record is going to be the issue,

Bad news is they'll have to completely rely on conference play, as the
non-con contains anything of significance.
Decent home wins can only hold up the profile so much.

Were slowly getting into trouble, but the Wisky/Iowa road double
restores them to lock status. Just like

They have many good but not great wins (NDSU, Delaware, Ohio, @Marq,

I had them off the board when I started writing this, and then they
ruined everything by winning at Michigan St.
Still a lot of work left to do, but they're in play right now. 7 of their losses are top 30 losses, so it's
somewhat forgivable with a couple signature wins in tow. Still, 2-9 R/N and 2-7 vs. Top 50 are black

Lost all their significant road games, win all their significant home
games. Throw out NCU and they won their
9 toughest home games. And they lost
their 7 toughest R/N games. They still
get the Oklahomas on the road...please just win one to make this easy on
everyone.

Welcome to the bubble. Still
some good high-end wins and many of the losses were reasonable, so they're
still in for sure. But let's not get too
crazy about them.

Still alive with the non-con wins, still need a lot of work to do. And if we're listing OSU at 4-8 in conference
play, we might as well list Baylor as well.
Their profile is kind of mediocre across the board instead of having a
glaring weakness.

They've forced their way to the bubble, but that's all. LIterally nothing in the non-con, and so many

Wavered back and forth on lockbox status for them. Should be fine; a win over SDSU would really

It's close, but I'll put them in the lockbox. The problem is all of the legwork is done in

Probably ascends to 3rd in the pecking order here. One big win changes the whole value of the

Non-con SoS and lack of non-con results aren't helping things, either.

Pretty good R/N record, which actually helps to forgive the two bad
road losses a bit. @UConn is their
signature win, but it's not as signature as the wins the other Pac-12 teams

I still wish there were more depth of quality wins here, but the SEC

With the mess in this SEC bubble situation, the non-con win over UCLA

Kind of the same situation as Arkansas, instead maybe this profile is
slightly worse in the non-con. You could
argue in the ordering of Arkansas/LSU/Ole Miss in the bubble hierarchy. Putting one in over the other two would feel
like splitting hairs at this point.

Arkansas St (14-9) (7-5) RPI 174 SoS 290
No postseason
Arkansas-Little Rock, Texas-Arlington, La-Monroe, Troy, Texas St, South

Bubble
Gonzaga (22-4) (13-1) RPI 21 SoS 90
Vital signs: 7-4 R/N, non-con
SoS 64, 1-2 vs. Top 50, 7-3 vs. Top 100, avg W/L 142/72
Quality wins: BYU, St Mary's,
@WVU, N-Arkansas?
Bad losses: @Portland
Just look at the wins and losses.
This should be a bubble team. I
can't sugarcoat it. The good news is the
solid SoS and general bad loss avoidance, so they should be fine. But they can't have lock designation anymore.
BYU (17-10) (10-5) RPI 41 SoS 27
Vital signs: 6-9 R/N, non-con
SoS 6, 2-5 vs. Top 50, 6-6 vs. Top 100, avg W/L 139/77
Quality wins: N-Texas,
@Stanford, sweep of St Mary's
Bad losses: @LMU, @Portland,
@Pepperdine, @everywhere apparently
That non-con SoS is saving their bacon.
Those 2 quality wins can't hold everything together if they keep losing
on the road in conference play, though.
I think they're out of mulligans.
Also, the committee rewards scheduling up, so they can still go either
way on this one. One of the toughest
cases on the board.
NIT watch
St Mary's (18-8) (9-5) RPI 59 SoS 87 - just can't justify a bubble spot
at the moment

Conference championship watch
Utah Valley (13-9) (9-2) RPI 155 SOS 247
New Mexico St (19-8) (9-3) RPI 79 SoS 164
Everyone in the conference who isn't NMSU has a garbage resume, for the record. NMSU swept UTEP and won at New Mexico, so there.
No postseason
*Grand Canyon, Chicago St, Seattle, Cal St-Bakersfield, UMKC, Idaho,
Texas-Pan American - well Seattle is .500 so if the CIT needs a western team...
