CBS interviewed a guy from the NCAA who is apparently overseeing the selection committee. He basically said their job was made easier by some teams making it to the semi-finals of their conference tournament. Pretty clear nod to IU. Especially because he was interviewed from Carmel.
 
Fortunately not much crazy stuff can happen now. Just not many bid stealers out there. Maybe A10 if Davidson loses, but IU might jump Davidson if that happens. Also, even if VT and/or A&M win, IU likely stays ahead of them. I think the only team not clearly ahead of IU that has a chance to jump is SMU, but would need to beat Memphis and Houston to have a 50-50 shot

Doesn't VT get the auto bid if they win ? Also, any chance we jump Creighton if they lose to "Nova ?

Yes they’ll get an autobid, but it won’t be enough to jump us. It will be a team like Mich,Xavier,SMU,Wyoming,Oklahoma that gets bumped

My point is that it would take like 4+ bid stealers for IU to sweat it out. There aren’t that many, and the ones that can make any movement won’t jump IU

Xavier is in trouble
 
IU is dancing. Great news for the program and the state of Indiana.

The loss sucked but damn, so proud of the team and the staff.
 
There is no question that IU gets a bid. None. The only question is whether we're stuck in Dayton for a play-in game, or whatever they call those games these days.

Losing in Dayton would suck. We need to be playing Thu/Fri for it to feel like a real tourney game.
