They didn't look that good tonight.

Wichita doesn't deserve a bid, but they'll get one bc of past success and bc Van Vleet was out for some games.

Gonzaga doesn't deserve a bid unless they win their tournament either.

I hope they don't get in just because they're bench annoys me.

Yes. I'd pick Kentucky and A&M, after that they can beat anyone in the SEC.

I think so. They have some pretty darn solid high-major wins. They are at least equal...and when that happens, I'll gladly take the mid-major Cinderella story. They play a good brand of basketball that is exciting, and their bench adds entertainment value to the tournament.

It's a no-brainer to me. They have more P5 wins than usual for a team of their stature....and only 3 bad losses.

I'd also take Wichita St. Over half their losses were from Van Fleet's time out with injury. They are a completely different team with him.

Gonzaga is in their conference tourney final, so we may not have to worry about them.

Short answer....Yes

Long answer...They have quality OOC wins. Wins over UCLA, USC, Notre Dame, and Georgetown. All four of those were away from home.

They're 2-2 against RPI top 50 and 4-4 against RPI top 100 teams.

They're 27-7 overall and went 14-3 in their league.
