The bubble was big this year and there were a lot of bid stealers. Several teams did not make the cut who I thought deserved a spot. It was hard to cut them but automatic bids trump at-large bids. This tournament will be exciting. There are several two-seeds in Regionals who could win that regional and beat the home team twice. Stanford is coming into the tournament very hot. Tennessee, Stanford, and Oregon State would be three teams who I think have the best chance at winning it all, but anything goes and there will be some upsets.
