These teams were all on the bubble, but failed to make it into the field of 68.

There were not as many big upsets in conference tournaments this year. Many deserving teams were still left out of the field of 68.  I was surprised a few times during the Selection Show, but I feel good about the field overall.

How many Big Ten bubble teams missed the cut?

Here is a list of bubble teams which had their bubble burst.

The ACC was top-heavy this year. Virginia and North Carolina hogged much of the spotlight and accolades. Duke did have their share of success, but the defending champs haven’t looked very ‘Duke-ish’ at points this season.

The Colonial Athletic Association is usually a single-bid conference in the NCAA Tournament. A few teams from the conference have played Cinderella in the past.

Could UNC-Wilmington wear the glass slipper?

The Big Ten was loaded this year. Not only is Michigan State a legit title contender, but a handful of other teams in the conference could surprise us all and win the tournament. Michigan shown to be pesky when they knocked off Indiana in the conference tournament.

The last time a team from the Atlantic Sun Conference made a dent in the NCAA Tournament was when Florida Gulf Coast’s Dunk City team went on a run to the Sweet Sixteen in 2013. Could the up-tempo team do it again?

The SEC had a down year this season. Kentucky was expected to run away with the conference, but they faced some obstacles along the way. If LSU would have materialized as a good team, maybe the conference would have received more at-large bids.

The Missouri Valley Conference is one of the best mid-major conferences. They’ve historically had pretty good success in the NCAA Tournament as well. Wichita State doesn’t come into the tournament as hot as the last two years, but don’t overlook them.
