I was more referring to how awful the bubble has been for about 20 years.

Agreed, which is why if they're going to have play in games, make all the play in teams bubble teams. No reason conference champs, who are automatic qualifiers, shouldn't make it to the round of 64 when a couple of teams that had all season to prove they belong, but didn't, get to be there without earning it.

Michigan gets ripped off. Beats Wisky and gets the 5 seed while Wisky gets the 3 seed.
Michigan also ahead of them in conference and a better overall record. Strength of schedule maybe?

The NIT and CBI brackets are out, only three Power 5 teams in the mix. Stanford, SMU and Georgia Tech. The College Basketball Crown tournament hasn't released its bracket yet but is expected to have some Big Ten, Big 12 and Big East teams. CIT has also not released their bracket yet but word is that it's happening.

Honestly, I wouldn't mind the NIT just going to mid majors. I'd watch it more closely than the Crown tournament

Four non-NCAA tournaments is ridiculous.
 


Here's the College Basketball Crown bracket. As expected it's largely made up of Power 5 teams. It's mostly a mix of Big Ten, Big East and Big 12 teams out there.

Colorado went 3-17 in the Big 12 and 14-20 overall and they're in a postseason tournament. What a joke.

DePaul wasn't much better at 4-16 in the Big East and 14-19 overall

EDIT: Arizona St. was also pretty bad at 4-16, 13-19

I wonder if the Gophers have gotten an invite and turned it down due to the coaching situation.
