Here are the only remaining possibilities as we enter Friday that could change the bubble discussion.  Only team remaining on the outside, that could get into at-large bid discussion is Oklahoma.   Georgetown, Ole Miss, and Seton Hall, remain around as bid stealers.

#1.  A-10 Bubble Buster:   St Louis (11:30) and VCU (7:00) start this week in A-10 QuarterFinals to block a bid from being stolen.

#2.  BE Semi's Seton Hall in BE Semi's against St. John's (5:30) and Georgetown vs UConn (8:00)  - Theoretically the Hall and Georgetown could win the Big East and steal a bid.   Seton Hall with a win today, could get discussed by the committee for an at-large, but I'm sure they would be dismissed.   They are 21-11, NET of 53, but with only Q1 win against NC ST, they don't have enough.

#3.  Ole Miss (14-19) in SEC Quarter-Finals against #15 Alabama (7:00) - Extreme longshot at a bid steal, but in theory could happen.

#4.  Utah St vs Nevada in MWC Semifinal (9:30).  Utah St trying to protect the current at-large field, so that there is no bid stealer from the MwC.

#5.  Oklahoma vs Q1 Arkansas in SEC QuarterFinals (9:30).   With a win today Oklahoma, seriously enters the at-large discussion.
