5 More Tickets Punched: Texas Southern, Kansas, San Diego State, Villanova, and Buffalo

This late afternoon/early evening gave us 5 more conference tournament champions, again changing up what the standings look like.  The standings fluctuate now with every single game.

Link to the Standings 

SWAC

• In the controversial SWAC, (3) Texas Southern defeated (1) Arkansas Pine Bluff, giving 11 people a win and a bonus point
• 3 people in the tops 15 at the time had Grambling State, a team that was disqualified before the conference tournament began

Big 12

• (1) Kansas pulled away from (3) West Virginia late in the game to secure the championship
• 41% of us picked Kansas, but the 2nd highest pick was West Virginia

Mountain West

• Only JoeCo had (5) San Diego State as they beat (3) New Mexico, this put Joe right up there with the leaders
• 65% of us had (1) Nevada, the 1 and 2 seeds were out of the Mountain West championship

Big East

• It took some extra time, but (2) Villanova beat (5) Providence, this caused a few people toward the top of the standings to miss a bonus point
• 76% of us were on Villanova

MAC

• In a chalky match-up (1) Buffalo took care of (2) Toledo, no bonus points were available
• 59% of our picks in the pool were for Buffalo, but many people at the top of the leader board had Ball State

I will provide at least 1 more update tonight, and then another 1st thing in the morning for the late games so we know what the last day looks like.  Tomorrow is Selection Sunday!
