Updated Championship Week Predictions

Last night in the quarterfinals of the Atlantic Sun, there weren't any real upsets.  The top three seeds (Florida Gulf Coast, Lipscomb, and North Florida, respectively) all won, and 5-seed Kennesaw State topped 4-seed South Carolina Upstate –- which means that NJIT, South Carolina Upstate, and Stetson's dreams of going to a first NCAA Tournament will have to wait for at least another year. 

The A-Sun takes a break for a few days, but we have two more tourneys starting up tonight, as the Big South and Patriot League Tournaments get underway.  Before things start to get crazy later this week and while we can still focus on such things, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention some of the great nicknames from the Big South:  Campbell Fighting Camels, Longwood Lancers (this wouldn't be as good if the name of the school was anything other than Longwood), Presbyterian Blue Hose, and Radford Highlanders.

But more importantly, will this be the year Gardner-Webb, High Point, Longwood, or Presbyterian in the Big South, or Army in the Patriot League punches its first ticket to the Big Dance?  Army is one of the five original Division 1 men's basketball teams –- along with The Citadel, Northwestern, St. Francis (NY), and William & Mary –- that have never played in an NCAA Tournament.  Of those five, Northwestern has the best chance of making the Big Dance this year.  Army is the 8-seed (out of 10) in the Patriot League, The Citadel is the 9-seed in the SoCon Tournament (out of 10), St. Francis (NY) didn't even qualify for the NEC Tournament, and William & Mary is the 4-seed in the CAA and would likely have to go through UNC-Wilmington and Charleston to win the title.  Chances are slim for Army, The Citadel, and William & Mary, but then again, that's why you play the game. 

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

-Big South

-Patriot League

Tournaments with games today

-Big South

-Patriot League

Bids up for grabs today

-None

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

-None

Because I am unhealthily obsessed with college basketball in March –- to the detriment of my marriage, children, 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 so much, you guys.  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)
