Bracketology 2/10/20
The committee's top 16 reveal on Saturday went largely as planned. I was a little surprised to see Michigan State in the reveal instead of Penn State, but other than that there were no real surprises. It was a bad weekend for bubble teams, with many teams (Stanford, Florida, Arkansas) taking questionable losses and falling closer to the bubble. My guess is that some of the teams on the outside looking in with good metrics, like Cincinnati and Mississippi State, are going to make a run into the field in the coming weeks.
