Updated Championship Week Predictions: "Royals"

Today's Championship Week song is "Royals" by Lorde, in honor of the Queens Royals' upset win over FGCU in the A-Sun quarterfinals, to advance to their first-ever A-Sun semifinals.

Only the Atlantic Sun was in action yesterday, and here's what happened and what we have to look forward to:

• In the Quarterfinals of the A-Sun, top seed Lipscomb trounced 10-seed Central Arkansas,84-66 , 2-seed North Alabama destroyed 7-seed Austin Peay, 90-64, 6-seed Queens upset 3-seed Florida Gulf Coast, 71-65, and 4-seed Jacksonville topped 5-seed Eastern Kentucky, 78-67, to advance to Thursday's semifinals.  However, Queens is not eligible to make the NCAA Tournament because they are still transitioning to Division 1.
• Three conference tournaments start today (Horizon, Patriot, Sun Belt), and those same three conference tournaments are the only ones with games today.
• No conference tournaments have semifinals or quarterfinals today.
• Here are the teams still playing in the conference tournaments that have already started or whose tournament brackets have been set that have never been to the NCAA Tournament (not including teams who are ineligible for this year's NCAA Tournament):
• Atlantic Sun:  2-seed North Alabama
• Big Sky:  10-seed Sacramento State
• Big South:  1-seed High Point, 6-seed Presbyterian, 9-seed USC Upstate
• Coastal:  4-seed William & Mary, 9-seed Elon
• Horizon:  4-seed Youngstown State, 5-seed Purdue Fort Wayne
• Northeast Conference:  7-seed Chicago State
• Patriot League:  6-seed Army
• Southern Conference:  10-seed The Citadel
• Southland:  7-seed Incarnate Word
• Summit League:  1-seed Omaha, 5-seed South Dakota, 7-seed Denver, 8-seed Kansas City
• Bubble teams that won yesterday (in conference tournaments):  None
• Bubble teams that lost yesterday (in conference tournaments):  None

With that, 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.
