ESPN updates Bracketology on the eve of Selection Sunday for March Madness
ESPN’s Joe Lunardi updated his latest edition of bracketology on the eve of Selection Sunday. The bubble is hot, according to the analyst.
“Bubble Report (through March 10),” Lunardi wrote. “PLAYED THEIR WAY IN: Penn State, Utah State, Rutgers and Mississippi State; PLAYED THEIR WAY OUT: Clemson, Nevada, North Carolina and Michigan; TOO CLOSE TO CALL: Pittsburgh, Arizona State and Oklahoma State (three teams for two spots). LURKING: Vanderbilt and Ohio State.”
Right now, Kansas is clearly the top dog why Oklahoma State and Arizona State are the first teams out and in, respectively.
