The Villanova Wildcats have to sit and wait until selection Sunday to see if they earned and at-large bid. The 'Cats helped themselves with a big win over the 'Cuse in the first round of the Big East Championship. They went on to face the one seed Georgetown and lost by 20points. This practically ends the season for Villanova. Of their 12 losses 9 have been by double figures. Their resume does not look all that promising of an at-large team.
LaSalle has been eliminated from tournament contention with last night's loss to Temple.
Temple still has a chance if it wins out in the A-10 tourney.
St. Joe's is alive controlling its own destiny with a win over Xavier and Temple/Charlotte winner the Hawks will have an automatic bid. However they do have a chance at an at-large with previous big wins over Xavier and Villanova.
The Ivy League has a new champion and it is not Pennsylvania. Penn did not clinch the Ivy League regular season title, and there is not conference tournament. So there bubble burst when the Ivy League was clinched by Cornell.
