Looks like MWC is a two bid league as New Mexico falls

So one at large is gone

Love the bid steelers... when we are not the "victims." Enjoy the weeping and gnashing of teeth when the #7 power five team with a .500 conference record gets bumped as a Fordham wins its tournament. Too bad for the rich kids.

What makes college basketball nuts. Teams that have been terrible over 30 games and 4 months disrupt good teams and steal chances.

Well, so far only one. We had to deal with five last year.

Fair point, Piratz; though without bid steelers, some pretty bad teams get in anyway: #7 or #8 in a power conference. Sure they are better than the upset tournament winner in the MVC, and if the P 5 or 6 secede from the NCAA, can you imagine what the field would resemble?

Of course Div. I cry babies could nix the issue of bid steelers by eliminating conference tournaments. Imagine that: forgoing all those dollars.

Key Game on CBS today in the A-10. Right now a single bid league with VCU. A George Mason win means a Xavier/Indiana on outside looking in.

Also Memphis needs to win to avoid another bid stealer.
