The Indiana Hoosiers NCAA Tournament dreams are like the zombie that just doesn’t die. Despite losing five of six, the Hoosiers still have an outside shot at an at-large bid to make the field of 68. Here is who IU fans should be rooting for or against as IU’s bubble fate will be determined this week in conference tournament play.
It depends on which bracketologist you follow, but IU is anywhere from Last Four In to First Four Out. That means any bid stealers and IU is in big trouble, so fans should want the favorites to win mid-major tournaments. It also means that IU needs teams in similar positions to drop games. IU can also help themselves by winning.
We will update this each day.
ACC Tournament
2pm- Pitt over Stanford (Pitt won 64-63)
4;30pm- Syracuse over SMU
7pm- Wake Forest over Virginia Tech
Big XII
3pm Utah over Cincinnati (Cincinnati won 73-66)
Big Ten
7:30pm- Northwestern over Penn State- IU would get another Quad 2 opportunity instead of playing a dreadful Penn State team in the second round of the Big Ten Tournament.
