Nursing a hangover with hair of the dog would've been more productive

LOL. If ESPN isn’t doing it, is there even a small possibility that the reason they don’t do it is because at this point in the season it’s a waste of time?

Having UConn as not a lock is insane(Purdue as well). We’d both need historical collapses not yet seen in CBB to miss the tournament. There are absolute locks at this point in the season

The way Bubble Watch works is that a lock means the team can lose all the remaining games and still make it in. At least that's what I seem to remember. So you can't be a lock if a historic collapse would stop you from making it.

If there are no locks then isn't it too early to have something like this? Way too early.

Locks are not the only category.
