Bullet Points
  • Most action played according to seed yesterday, but there were a few upsets: Morgan State over South Carolina State in the MEAC's 4-5 game, and both low seeds won in the SWAC, including No. 6 Arkansas-Pine Bluff.
  • Yeah, there were a couple of pretty surprising upsets too. Lamar knocked off Sam Houston State in the Southland in a No. 7 over No. 2 job, and Boise State upended Fresno State in the WAC 6-over-3 style.
  • One autobid tonight: the Patriot decides a champion.
  • Not much left but semifinals leading into this weekend's last batch of championship games. Foursomes in six leagues tonight: the Big West, MAC, MEAC, Southland, SWAC and WAC.
  • Autobids: Pennsylvania, Winthrop, Eastern Kentucky, Davidson, Creighton, Virginia Commonwealth, Niagara, Wright State, Oral Roberts, North Texas, Central Connecticut State, Weber State.
  • NIT: Austin Peay, Marist, East Tennessee State, South Alabama and Southern Illinois (SIU won't need it, though).

Austin, Texas-Arlington, Sam Houston State, Grambling and Alcorn (and yes, loyal readers: we forgot to say goodnight to SWAC non-qualifiers Alabama A&M and Prairie View), Idaho, Louisiana Tech, Fresno State and Hawaii. Your seasons are finished; keep your head up, movin' on.
