I have Indiana just above my last 4 in..  but we are talking minimal margins.

Here is why I like Indiana above the others:

8-12 top 100 record
4 top 50 wins
Only 1 bad loss

Underwhelming, but many of the bottom of the field teams have 3 and 4 bad losses.     I think this is where Texas and Indiana may rise from the rest of the field.

Ole Miss
9-8 top 1oo record (really good) 
3 top 5o wins
4 bad losses

To be honest I may re-evaluate the two today because if you simply add the bad losses to the top 100 records, it is 8-13 vs 9-12.  I may have been harsh on bad losses, but I was looking for something to separate the teams.

I also removed BYU who most have in:

4-6 top 100 record
1 top 50 win (really elite thought - AT Gonzaga)
3 bad losses

The Gonzaga win on the road is special, but the rest is just not enough.

Wyoming coming in (and possibly UConn) created some mystery.   There was no one pushing up on Friday (except maybe Tulsa), so the field seemed set.   Now we have to take one or 2 of the garbage out.
