AL wins again today likely punching a ticket and knocking someone back. L'ville and Syracuse can't be happy with how the SEC tourney is going so far.
Does UGA keep their hopes alive today. Maten has been awesome so far.
AL "wins" is putting it lightly. They scored
28 more points than the #1 seed in the SEC in the second half (Alabama outscored Auburn 50-22 in the second half!). A beat down. Indeed, Alabama was #51 in KenPom and likely out before winning twice in the SEC Tournament. Georgia at #62 in KenPom - I don't know if a win over an untypically average Kentucky team would do it. But definitely not good for ACC Bubble teams.
The Big10 I don't think really messed anything up. Oregon is still alive in the Pac-12 (#70 KenPom at 22-11). They beat 3 seed Utah and play 2 seed USC today. And the Big12 final four is 1/2/3/4 seeds. So its looking I'd say so-so. There are 11 teams in the ACC with 20+ wins.
8 ACC teams are in the top 37, 8 in the top 43. NC State is #43, FSU is #36, Louisville is #33. (KenPom)
Louisville is #38 in RPI. Either metric, that should be in absent any bias.
Florida State is #50 in RPI. That is yucky.
Syracuse is #41, on the edge, but #53 in KenPom. Yuck.
Virginia Tech and NC State, who have been 'locks' for awhile are #32 KenPom/#58 RPI and #43 KenPom/#63 RPI. They have worse metrics honestly than some of the 'bubble' teams in the ACC.
Notre Dame is #30 KenPom/#64 RPI.
There's going to be a lot of arguing after the selection is complete.
