[B]TUESDAY KEY BUBBLE GAMES  (Last 8 In, First 8 Out)[/B]

[B]Note - I base the last 8 in based on # of brackets the are in, not average seed.[/B]

Arkansas is the 7th last team in [/B]per the matrix.   A 4-6 team in the SEC being in, speaks to the bubble being as it normally has been in recent years (underwhelming), and the SEC being much stronger than usual.  They have a neutral win over Oklahoma as well that really helps them.

[B]Providence is the 5th last team in.  [/B] Providence has some good home wins in Confrerence (Xavier, Creighton, Butler) and they beat Washington on a neutreal floor.   But they lost to UMass (projected sub 200 RPI).  Go Hoyas :(

Missouri is the 8th last team in.  [/B]   No quad one wins OOC.. they have 3 in conference.   Lost vs Illinois,   Nothing overwhelming here.   Ole Miss is not good, but no road game is easy for a bubble team.
