Updated Championship Week Predictions

Championship Week 2016 stated with a bang yesterday.  While there were no upsets in the first round of the Patriot League, in the quarterfinals of the Atlantic Sun, we saw 2-seed NJIT -- a team that beat Michigan in Ann Arbor last season -- lose to 7-seed Stetson and 3-seed Jacksonville -- a team that lost in the 1970 NCAA Championship game to UCLA -- lose to 6-seed Lipscomb.  Three more conference tournaments start today (America East, Northeast Conference, and the OVC).

Before we get into the shit -- and mark my words, we will soon be in the shit -- I just wanted to take a minute to remark on how wide open this college basketball season has been.  There are probably 12-15 teams that could realistically win the national title, and that should make you just as excited for this year's Championship Week and NCAA Tournament as I am.  

There is no team in the AP Top 25 with fewer than four losses.  In fact, the only team in Division 1 with fewer than four losses is Arkansas-Little Rock, which currently sits at 27-3.  To realize how rare this year is, let's take a look at how many teams in the final AP poll -- which is released at the end of the regular season, just before the NCAA Tournament -- had 3 or fewer losses over the previous ten seasons:
-2015:  7
-2014:  2
-2013:  1
-2012:  3
-2011:  4
-2010:  2
-2009:  1
-2008:  5
-2007:  2
-2006:  5

In fact, unless UALR wins its remaining regular season and conference tournament games and ends up in the final AP poll (currently, the Trojans have 2 votes in the AP poll, putting them 10 spots out of a ranking), this will be the first time in the history of the AP poll (which started in 1949) that the final AP poll will not feature at least one team with fewer than 4 losses.  That's insane, but then again, this college basketball season has been insane.

Here are the tournaments starting today, the tournaments with games today, bids up for grab today, who has already clinched an automatic berth, and my predictions for the remaining conference tournaments.

Tournaments starting today

-America East
-Northeast Conference
-Ohio Valley

Tournaments with games today

-America East
-Northeast Conference
-Ohio Valley

Bids up for grabs today

-None

Already clinched automatic berths (I will add in parentheses the NCAA tournament appearances, including the bid just clinched)

-None

Because I am unhealthily obsessed with college basketball in March –- to the detriment of my marriage, friendships, work, sleep schedule, sanity, and wallet -- I have not only listed out every game and my predictions, but the date, time, and TV station(s) on which the game will appear, even if it's just local, regional, or online, to the extent that information is available.  Some conference tournament websites are better than others.  I want this to be as comprehensive as possible, so that you can always come here to figure out when any given team is playing.  I love you.  Don't you ever forget it.

Remaining Tournaments (all times are Eastern; to the extent there are teams that have clinched seeds in tournament fields that are not completely set, I will put those in)
