Florida loses to Kentucky. Florida was last team in on Lunardi's board so helps Butler out a bit.

UConn getting beat down hard, 27 points with 2:30 to go against SMU. Temple won earlier.
This is my opinion. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

UConn loses by 26
Cincy loses by 13

Not a good night for the AAC, man that league is a clusterf#ck
Could UConn and Cincy meet in the 1st round of the AAC tourney in basically a NCAA elimination game?

UConn and Cincy will most likely finish 5th and 6th in the 8th ranked conference. This means two bubble teams meet each other in the AAC tourney first round. Hello NIT for the loser. And the winner may need to still win the AAC tourney.

UConn loses by 26 and Cincy scores 20 pts in the first half. Not a good impression this time of year.

Just looking, unless Tulsa loses to USF, UConn and Cincy will meet each other in a QF, EVEN if Cincy beats SMU.

Hou 12-6
Tul 12-6
Cincy 12-6

all are 2-2 vs each other. vs Temple- Hou and Tulsa split, Cincy went 0-2. So they are out.

The good news for the AAC though is likely the winner of that game is in pretty much no matter what. And Tulsa/Houston now unless they lose to Memphis, UCF, or Tulane- would be in the title game. For Tulsa, that should be enough to make the tourney. For Houston, they would need to win 1 game.

looks like it's going to be
1 Temple
2 Houston
3 Tulsa
4 Cincy
5 UConn
6 Memphis
7 UCF
8/9 ECU/USF
10 Tulane

Also MOV- remember UConn got killed a few years ago by what 40 vs Louisville.

Houston isn't listed on a single bracket according to bracketmatrix http://www.bracketmatrix.com/

They need to win the auto bid. How is that possible for a 22-8(12-6) team? Yeah, I know, their OOC sucked donkey dick apparently.

I meant that Houston would need to win the tourney.... Although could see them at 24-9 with a top 50 KP rating maybe getting in one of the first 4 perhaps....

Tulsa won a lot this week by just not playing. Think if they beat Memphis and Houston in the tourney, they could have a really good shot at large should they lose to Temple/UConn/Cincy in the final.

just saw an updated bracket from Palm and UConn still in the tourney, along with Tulsa now. Cincy still the 1st team out. Temple is up to a 10 seed while the PIG teams are 11 seeds, so they might be able to make the final and get in themselves(beating Cincy or UConn in the SF).
