EOA Sports Ratings

And that's it, all games are done.  Here is the final update. 

Just five more games before the selection committee announces the bracket.  The seed list assumes that Alabama , Houston , Purdue , VCU , and Yale all win.  Here are the changes that will take place depending on the results of todays games: If Texas A&M wins, they move up to bump San Diego St. and others down.  If Memphis wins, they move up to bump Boise St. and others down. If Penn St. wins, they move up to bump Missouri and others down. If Dayton wins, they move up to bump Col. of Charleston and others down and VCU comes off the board. If Princeton wins, they move up to bump UC Santa Barbara and others down and Yale comes off the board.

Eye test day today... lots of movement in the seed list reflecting games played yesterday as well as a review across the board to make sure things still seemed reasonable. 

Lots of important games yesterday.  Biggest changes to the seed list are: Kansas moving up to the top overall seed after posting a 16th win against Q1 teams.  Pretty difficult to see how they don't keep this even if they don't win their conference tournament. Nevada dropping down from a should be in to just above the cut line on the bubble.  They likely only need to win last night to put them in the locks group, but not they will might have a long wait on Sunday evening. Oklahoma St. and Michigan moving to the bottom of the bubble list after getting their 15th loss.  Probably should come right off the list after hitting that magic number, but if bubble teams keep losing, you never know. Penn St. moves on to the good side of the bubble list with a quality win last night after Oklahoma St. took itself out of contention.

Not much movement in the seed list again today. A few bubble teams were in action last night... Pittsburgh and Arizona St. had wins that should keep them above the cut line for now.  Oklahoma St. and NC State had stronger wins, but not really strong enough for them to move up the list. Wisconsin would really like a do-over of their game last night as they were already below the cut line and the loss means that they have to sit and hope other bubble teams have quick exits from their conference games. North Carolina and New Mexico had wins against some relatively weak opponents, but that should keep them in the conversation for a while longer at least. New auto-bids went to  Montana St. ,  Colgate , and  A&M-Corpus Christi as expected and  Iona ,  Grambling , and  N. C. Central all won their games to keep them on track for their conference titles.

Gonzaga, Drake, Oral Roberts, Col. Of Charleston, Northern Ky., and FDU all locked in last night in as expected (technically FDU was locked in when they made their conference finals) and no real bubble teams were in action, so no changes to the seed list today. Lots of bubble teams begin their congerence tournaments today, so things could start moving.
