3/4 preview

Tournament Central:
Big South 1st round, America East quarterfinals, Northeast quarterfinals. Ohio Valley 1st round.  Mostly early round stuff, but the A-East leaders and NEC leaders do have to play and hold serve today

Seeding impact games:
Notre Dame at Louisville - time for ND to show they deserve to be on the 3 line

needing to hold serve:
Providence at Seton Hall, Wake Forest at Duke

Bubble watch:
Ohio St at Penn St
Tennessee at LSU - it's the time of year when one of these slip-ups is fatal
Miami at Pittsburgh - bubble game of the day - someone's taking a mild step forward
Purdue at Michigan St - don't think MSU is in the clear yet, Purdue is on the brink but I don't think drops out of the field with a loss
Cincinnati at Tulsa - obviously massive for Tulsa
TCU at Oklahoma St - OSU should be in the lockbox any day now
St John's at Marquette
USC at UCLA
Nebraska at Illinois
Oregon at Oregon St - I think OU is fine even with a loss here

Mountain West special edition subsection:
Boise St at San Jose St
San Diego St at UNLV - BSU and SDSU tied at 12-4
Colorado St at Nevada - CSU 1 back
Utah St at Wyoming - USU 1 back inexplicably
