Mock Selection Update-Part 4

Last night's meeting was pretty quiet, with the only notable event being eliminating Bradley and Oklahoma State from the nomination board.

With today's loss to Villanova, DePaul has slipped out of my field, likely for good barring seriously strange events. Despite the game being fairly close, DePaul's lackluster performance today told me all I needed to know. When fighting for your at large lives, you need to play with a lot more desperation.

Here is my current ranking of teams not yet in our field.

Should Safely Get In:
1. Syracuse
2. Xavier
3. Texas Tech
4. Michigan State
5. Stanford
6. Old Dominion

Big Fans of Memphis and Nevada:
7. Florida State
8. Purdue

Need Some Serious Help:
9. UMass
10. Missouri State
11. Drexel
12. DePaul
13. Kansas State
14. Illinois
15. Clemson
16. Appalachian State
