Last Eight In: Syracuse, Michigan State, Louisville, Utah State, VCU, Wichita State, UCLA, St. Bonaventure
First Eight Out: Drake, Colorado State, Saint Louis, Boise State, Xavier, Duke, Memphis, Mississippi
The bubble shrank with Georgetown upsetting Creighton to win an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. That knocked Colorado State out. Then later in the day it happened again when Oregon State beat Colorado. That knocked Drake out. The potential is there for the bubble to shrink once again on Sunday if Cincinnati can manage to beat Houston. Next up on our chopping block is Syracuse. Whatever happens on Sunday, the First Four may be very interesting with teams like Michigan State, Louisville and Syracuse all potentially playing on Thursday.
