FrontPageBets breaks down what to expect in the Super Six men's conference basketball tournaments.
The NCAA Tournament is closing fast but much is to be decided this week in a conference tournament playground where only a few obvious favorites have emerged.
Projected NCAA bids: Duke, North Carolina, Notre Dame, Wake Forest, Miami. You might want to read this sentence twice and store it away before you put Duke in your Final Four . Projected NCAA bids: Providence, Villanova, Connecticut, Marquette, Creighton, Seton Hall, Xavier. This comes down to whether Xavier – which had Providence beat before the roof leaked at Dunkin’ Donuts Center, caused a delay and eventually a two-OT loss – or Creighton can find some magic. And then whether the NCAA Tournament Selection Committee sees this as the competitive collection we do.
Projected NCAA bids: Michigan, Iowa, Michigan State, Ohio State, Illinois, Rutgers, Wisconsin, Purdue.
