Zaga's win last night bumped them to a three seed, Bama back to a four. No change for the Tide in the NET.

 

[RTB X Bot]

Less than 25 percent of the brackets published have Auburn in: all at 11. 90 percent of the brackets have moved TX to an 11 seed.

That puts UMASS in for a one-bid conference...but, with Miami's resume?

This puts "outside the bubble" a little farther outside ...

Does anyone remember what year it was when UGA lost to Bama in the regular season, ended up a couple of games over .500, and Bama was left at home when UGA got the invite to the dance?

2002-2003. The only reason I remember that was I was in college and I was dating a Georgia fan and she was telling me about how there were some kind of fraud and they had to withdraw from the tournament.
