As the college basketball calendar pushes into late February and early March, nothing in sports gets more attention than the NCAA Tournament bubble.
Teams on the right side of the bubble? They’ll make the tournament and have a chance to shock the world.
For others, their tournament bubble will burst. They’ll have to start the long college hoops offseason grind.
Of course, all of these bubble teams could play themselves off the bubble by winning their conference tournament in March. Otherwise they’ll be sweating it out with the rest of the bubble gang on Selection Sunday.
Here’s an updated look at the men’s NCAA Tournament bubble, as of Feb. 20.
