Shorter post today as we transition into March. For the next 11 days, I will try to keep everything up to speed daily. One caveat will be the weekend, I will wait for all weekend results to finish and then pick this up daily next Monday.
Represented today is the new NCAA revised 2021 bracket rules. In review, the format requires BYU and all of the first four games (Thursday) to be placed in the left side of the bracket. The right side has no first four winners, and a true 32 teams directly placed into the bracket.
New Conference leaders today represented below as Automatic Bids:
MVC - Loyola-Chicago
Patriot - Navy
SoCon - UNC Greensboro
Southland - Nicholls
Summit - South Dakota State
Bracket projections are based on 2020-21 NCAA Committee Principles and Selection Process. Projected Conference Champions are based on projected Auto-Bid winners.
Projected At-Large Bids Stolen: 0 (Highly unlikely, annual average is 2.4 per season)
NCAA ALTERNATE TEAMS: Xavier, Utah State, Saint Louis, Ole Miss
NEXT FOUR TEAMS OUT: Stanford, Richmond, Duke, St. John's
