We are down to seven bubble teams following yesterday’s action. Arkansas and Oklahoma moved up, for now, following wins in the SEC Tournament. Georgia and Vanderbilt lost, but I have kept them off the bubble for now.

Not so lucky was Ohio State, which lost to Iowa and has dropped off the bubble to the wrong side. The Buckeyes went into the Big Ten Tournament needing multiple wins but couldn’t even manage one against the Hawkeyes.

All seven teams are in action today. Most notably, we have double-bubble action in the Mountain West, where two of the last four teams in today’s bracket face off.

Thursday’s ‘double-bubble’ game

Boise State vs. San Diego State

This is unquestionably the most important bubble game of the day. Both teams are among the last four teams in my bracket this morning. It is a likely elimination game; however, teams currently off the bracket have not done a great job of improving their cases. The winner of this game gets the winner of top seed New Mexico vs. San Jose State.

Other bubble teams in action Thursday

The Hoosiers have made a run into the bracket by winning four of their last five games, including victories over Michigan State and Purdue. The one team to beat them in that stretch was Oregon.
