Bracketology 3/9/16
1) The only real surprise in last night's results was Farleigh Dickinson's victory over Wagner- FDU was a big underdog @Wagner, who had dominated the NEC this year.
2) Gonzaga got a crucial win over St. Mary's and is going dancing again. I feel pretty good about the Gaels' at-large chances- even though I have them in the First Four right now, I still have them as my sixth team in (they're above the other 3 First Four teams, as well as Gonzaga and Temple). However, the Gonzaga win probably cost some bubble team their at-large bid- perhaps Connecticut, Temple or Tulsa.
3) The better teams of the major conferences start playing tomorrow, and we have a big noon bubble battle between Syracuse and Pittsburgh. The Orange fell out of my bracket today, and Pitt is one spot away from the First Four right now.
Moving In: Green Bay, Farleigh Dickinson, Gonzaga
Moving Out: Wright State, Wagner, Syracuse
Removed From Consideration: None
Legitimate Possibilities: Syracuse, Valparaiso, Monmouth, Michigan
Long Shots: San Diego State, Arkansas-LR, Hofstra, George Washington, Stanford, Florida, Houston, Washington, Florida State
