Bubbles bursting by the minute.

South Florida got hammered by Georgetown today.  That means that SFU most likely won't be invited to the big dance. 

Missouri got beat by lowly Nebraska.  That is very unimpressive.  The Tigers have a 10-6 record in Big 12 play.  That alone should qualify them for the NCAA tourney.  But losing in the first round to Nebraska who is 14 and 17 on the year is bad.

 What's scary is teams that run the table and make it that otherwise wouldn't have.  This bumps off another bubble team.  I don't think Nebraska will run the table, but someone usually does.

Back to the Big East.  Cincinatti and Seton Hall are still alive, but they won't likely run the table either.   However, Seton Hall takes on the 7 seed in Notre Dame.  This is a big game for the Fighting Irish.  They are a bubble team that is looking better than most.  A loss here could really hurt them.  A win should be enough to get them in.
