Big Blue Madness! The Kentucky Wildcats clinched the auto-bid spot into the NCAA Tournament after upsetting No. 1 South Carolina. Kentucky has now won 10 straight and they don’t seem to be stopping anytime soon. This could be a dangerous team. Utah from the Pac-12 and Miami from the ACC also made surprise appearances in their conference tournament championships but couldn’t get the job done. Both should comfortably make the NCAA Tournament. We have teams who have clinched an auto-bid this past week and the rest will be this week leading up to Selection Sunday.
