Last Four In: Kansas, Arkansas, Missouri, St. John’s
First Four Out: Syracuse, Seton Hall, West Virginia, Washington
Connecticut now has five losses after being stunned at home by St. John’s. I believe this helps St. John’s more than it hurts Connecticut. Connecticut remains a one-seed, powered mostly by the number of their Q1/Q2 wins. Utah would be next to take their place. Oregon is nearly off the bubble as a potential tournament team (in a bad way). They have really taken a tumble lately. Missouri is hanging on by a thread as they barely make the tournament in this week’s bracket. Washington is gaining ground in the Pac-12 and could sneak in if they get some help from other teams. Washington has a huge upset win over Stanford.
