Jacksonville State became the 25th team to make the tournament, winning the Ohio Valley Conference title Saturday after stunning heavy favorite Belmont in the semifinals en route to their first March Madness appearance. For 23 other teams the chances of March Madness ended with conference tournament losses and a 0% chance of an at-large bid.
Entering Sunday’s games the 261 teams below still have a chance, while the 25 teams in bold are 100% in the tournament.
The most important games Sunday, to teams on the bubble, are in the West Coast Conference, where an upset by Santa Clara or Brigham Young against either Gonzaga or St. Mary’s would provide a chance to steal a third bid for the conference and bump another team out.
The most shocking conference tournament news came from the Horizon League, where both heavy favorites were stunned by a No. 9 and 10 seed. Milwaukee and Youngstown State beat Valparaiso and Oakland in the quarter finals, though the upsets will not affect bubble teams since only one team from the league will be invited.
The following is info on all 261 teams still alive for bids and ultimately the national championship.
