The bubble teams better hope Northern Iowa wins that tourney, otherwise 3 MVC teams are getting in.

Two reasons - academics and the fact the schools are geographically close to each other.

Most conferences used to have a Thursday-Saturday schedule but once TV money took off...

Bad result for AAC with Belmont getting th Ohio valley auto bid, Murray state probably an at large bid. one less slot for Tulsa.
