This year’s conference tournaments have affected the bubble teams’ March Madness odds as much as any season in recent memory. Indiana State falling to Drake last Sunday was the first sign of a crazy week to come. On Thursday, Dayton followed suit and lost in the quarterfinals of the Atlantic 10 Tournament which opened the door for yet another bid stealer. Meanwhile, bubble teams such as Colorado, New Mexico, Virginia, Providence, Texas A&M and Pittsburgh remain alive in their conference tournaments setting up a weekend that will be tense for many fanbases.
