2-21 Bracket:

The weekly bracket update here is a day late thanks to the lovely cold I have been fighting.

The Missouri Valley still has five teams in the field, but Southern Illinois's hold is paper-thin after losing at home to an off the radar Louisiana Tech team. They were the second to last team in the field, and their margin for error is gone.

Arkansas did a good job solidifying their spot in the field by knocking off Florida, and Alabama's spot is very secure after a blowout of Tennessee.

With UAB and Houston both in the field alongside Memphis, Conference USA somehow has three teams in the field despite being ranked 14th in Conference RPI. However, teams earn bids, not conferences, and UAB and Houston have done just a tad bit more than rest of the sorry group on bubble.

After getting a much needed win against Oklahoma, Colorado goes and loses at a mediocre Kansas State team, and is right back on the bubble, although they sneak in the field as of now.

Indiana, even with the wheels really falling off, still sneaks in as the last team in. Their profile is just a touch better than the final five teams out. Come back in a week, and they'll likely be out of the bracket.
