Bracketology 3/13/19

The game of the night was Gonzaga/St. Mary's, where the Gaels handed Gonzaga their first loss since December. St. Mary's was highly unlikely to make the field if they had lost, so we officially have our first bid stealer of this year. I have knocked Indiana out of the field to make way for St. Mary's. Gonzaga remains the #2 overall seed despite the loss. Today, the major conference bubble teams start playing- Clemson and NC State face off, St. John's takes on DePaul and TCU plays Oklahoma State.
