Bold: Automatic bid

Notes:
Not much change in the last couple of days, apart from changing the autobid winners at the bottom.  I still think BYU is right on the bubble with their 4 bad losses, and they will be sweating out the other conference tournaments, hoping that teams like Minnesota, Providence or St. John's don't make deep runs.  I have seen other bracketologists give BYU a better seed, but I just can't get past those four bad losses.  They are only 3-7 against the RPI top 50, and their win against Texas is the only thing to conterbalance the bad losses.  I almost put California ahead of them, and either Providence or St. John's is going to get a decent win today, so it's going to be a long wait until Selection Sunday for the Cougars.
