Fridays are usually pretty light for the Bubble Watch, so I'm just combining them with Thursdays.
Good night for Pitt last night, though it wasn't reflected in NET.
Here we go.....
----------------------------------------------
Penn State (16-11, NET 57) at Ohio State - 6:30pm, FS1
- Penn State is barely on the back end of the bubble and needs to win out and a couple in the B1G tourney. Go Buckeyes!
Memphis (20-7, NET 39) at Wichita State - 7:00pm, ESPN2
- Memphis has drifted a little bit lately. This is a team Pitt can get ahead of in the seedings. Go Shockers!
Michigan (15-12, NET 62) at Rutgers (17-10, NET 28) - 8:30pm, FS1
- Michigan is on the outside right now, and needs to win out. Rutgers is a team that Pitt can pass in the seed lines, potentially. Tough call. I'm going to go with.... Go Wolverines!
Northwestern (20-7, NET 38) at Illinois (18-9, NET 34) - 9:00PM, BTN
- Despite the higher NET ranking, Illinois is in a more precarious spot than Northwestern is. Pitt needs their most impressive win (according to computers) to stay as impressive as possible. So..... Go Wildcats!
UCLA (23-4, NET 4) at Utah (17-11, NET 56) - 11:00pm, FS1
- Utah needs this win badly. If they get it, they will get a much-needed marquee win. Go Bruins!
Xavier (20-8, NET 35) at Seton Hall (16-12, NET 71) - FRIDAY 7:00pm, FS1
- Seton Hall is dead. But not buried. A win here might keep them barely alive. But I think Xavier is a team that is struggling lately and could be passed by Pitt on the seed lines if we finish strong. I'm going to go with .... Go Pirates!
Nevada (21-7, NET 32) at Fresno State - FRIDAY 11:00pm, FS1
- Good for Pitt's seeding if teams like Nevada lose to bad teams. Go Bulldogs!
