If you are a Virginia, Seton Hall, St. John's, Providence or Pitt fan, and on the sidelines, here are the games that matter for you today.    6 games that still matter by Saturday is a lot for Conference Tourney Week.   (some might argue its 5 because Miss St is in the clear)

[LIST]
[*]Miss St vs Auburn (1:00)... Miss St is probably safe, but that 8-10 SEC record may be used against them. So hope they lose.
[*]Texas A&M vs Florida (3:30) ... Texas A&M has 7 Q1 wins, is 13-8 Q1 vs Q2, but has an amazing 5 bad losses (Q3).   Personally I think the good outweighs the bad, but who knows.
[*]Temple vs Florida Atlantic (5:30) ... AAC Semi's... you want Florida Atlantic to win to avoid a bubble buster.   That being said if Florida Atlantic loses I am not convinced that they are a lock.    They probably get in, but maybe not.   2-2 in Q1, 9-5 in Q1+Q2 (very good), but this would be their 3rd bad loss... potentially all Q4 (temple is 198)... those are 3 bad losses.
[*]New Mexico vs San Diego St (6;00) - MWC Title Game.     Here is the thing with New Mexico ... even with 2 Q1 wins this week, they are still just 4-6 in Q1, 7-7 in Q1+Q2, and have a Q3 and Q4 loss.    I have no clue how people had them in before this week (despite a NET around 25).  Now it looks much more solid as Q1 at 4-6 instead of 2-7 or 3-7 (had they lost).  They could still be out with a loss.
[*]NC St vs UNC (8:30).   NC St wins and they steal a bid.
[*]Oregon vs Colorado (9;00)   Colorado is a fellow bubble team, but worse scenario is Oregon wins the automatic and then Colorado also gets an at-large.
