4:10pm Update
Murray State was unimpressive, but they eeked out a 2 point win over Tennessee State that insured that the Ohio Valley Conference will only receive NCAA Tournament bid.

First order of business – congrats to former Pack assistant Eddie Biedenbach, as he takes UNC-A to a second straight NCAAT.
We can also track bubble and Pack resume related games. So far, one bad thing has happened (UConn over Pitt). The asshole Huskies have a good enough RPI that they are likely in for sure now (and ESPN’s lackeys are already spouting excuses about poor wittle Calhoun’s back). WVU beat South Florida, which is probably neutral (unless you’re WV Wolf).
Very big games this afternoon, especially Northwestern at Iowa at 2:30. I can’t cheer against a team that has NEVER made the field, but the Mildcats really need a W. Also the Ohio Valley final – Murray State would get an at-large bid if they lose.
Even though Miami is also battling for a bid…the Pack really needs them to win. Our worst resume line is record against the Top 50. Miami getting to T50 status makes that much, much better.
