Last Four In: Penn State, Arizona, Michigan, Texas A&M
First Four Out: Auburn, Miami (FL), Arkansas, Washington State
Arizona has leaped into the tournament after upsetting Stanford, which brings them to an even .500 in conference play. With a NET in the 30s they at least have to be on the bubble, but I believe they deserve an at-large bid for now. NC State drops to a 3-seed after two setbacks last week. Texas has risen to a 1-seed. Despite leading the conference, Oklahoma still remains outside the top sixteen national seeds and will not host at this point. However, a strong finish in conference play and a run in the Big 12 Tournament could propel them to host the First and Second Round.
