Bracketology Update: BYU Targets Kansas Win as UConn Battles Villanova

The latest Bracketology highlights the challenges for teams like BYU and UConn in their upcoming games.

The Bracketology Bubble Watch returns after a couple of quiet days with five teams playing including two of the new teams to the bubble from the Big East.

Xavier has played its way onto the bottom of the bubble with three wins in its last four. UConn also makes an appearance after a loss at then-last place Seton Hall.

The bubble should start to shrink as we get closer to Selection Sunday in less than four weeks.

Teams in Action Tuesday

UConn vs. Villanova, 6:30 p.m. | FS1, fubo

The Huskies, a No. 9 seed in the latest bracket projection, have a tournament résumé full of holes. Among their eight losses are two each in Quad 2 and Quad 3 and a total of five losses to teams not currently in the bracket. The worst of those is the latest one, a loss at Seton Hall. UConn also has five wins over teams in the bracket, including Texas, which is one of the ’last four in.'


BYU vs. Kansas, 9 p.m. | ESPN, fubo

The Cougars, a No. 11 seed and one of the ’last four in,’ have picked up a few wins since losing at Cincinnati a little over a week ago. The win at West Virginia was especially good since that is a team BYU is competing with for a spot. A win over the Jayhawks would be its best so far by a wide margin, but it does not guarantee anything.
