I think it's fairly realisitc.

lets see what they say for the 5 teams on the outside right now.... and combine with KP projections
Xavier 5-4- favored by KP in 2 games
Georgetown 5-4 favored in 3 games
DePaul 6-3 favored in 2 games
Providence 6-3 favored in 2 games
St Johns 7-2 favored in 2 games

only games any of these 5 are favored in btw are vs each other. It's still an uphill battle for all 5 teams. The loser of tonight's Xavier/DePaul game is in pretty deep trouble.

The only thing I really disagree with is the ability to get 8 teams in. That would require 2 of the teams to seperate from everyone else and then hope that one of the other 3 teams can win it all. With them at 8-9 seed and having to play each other 1st round and then #1 seed at Noon the next afternoon. Good luck with that. I don't think there is a chance of 8 w/o the auto bid now.

Right now I see it as
5- 50%
6- 40%
7- 10%

Way to completely miss the obvious point, but I guess that was intentional on your part. Same old stever

Wichita State loses at home. Their resume is devoid of much substance so don’t be shocked (pun intended) if Gregg misses the dance.
Nebraska by birth, Creighton by choice.

tomorrow will be interesting- the now annual sweet 16 preview reveal is tomorrow.....

It'll be interesting to see what they do with Seton Hall. They'll be a top 4 seed. Do they get placed in NYC, or are they moved out similar to what they did to Villanova a few years ago.
