One can make a strong case for Xavier’s resume to get it in, but I can’t see it. They have totally collapsed. Once you’re making decisions that can be argued either way, I can’t see ignoring the fact that a team has just lost its way.

I’d be very surprised if Wake makes it

 

[Dooooooomed]

No chance Wake gets in. They have a NC SOS of 343/358. That's a disqualifier for a bubble team from a power conference.

 

[MJ1]

Committee will weigh all season and not focus on last 12 games. Xavier will get in before Wake based on total season resume. I believe Indiana is already in.

 

[shizzle787]

With Richmond’s win, Wake (my last team in) is out.

Colorado should get a look. Why aren't they?

Some of their metrics don’t really match up.

Wake is out, Miami gets a bye, and the rest are in Dayton.

 

[UConNick]

Here’s how I had it in my (very) amateur final projection:

Last 4 Byes: San Francisco, Creighton, Michigan, Miami

Last 4 In: Indiana, Texas A&M, Notre Dame, Wyoming

First 4 Out: Xavier, Wake Forest, Rutgers, North Texas (I know they weren’t actually this close, but I wish they were instead of these middling P5 squads).

How does Travis Steele keep his job after missing the tournament for four years in a row with a team as talented as Xavier is?
