With all the craziness surrounding college basketball these last few weeks, it has been hard to follow what has been going on with every team and every conference that has March aspirations. Every day there has been an upset or big game that changes the landscape of who will get in the tournament and how they will be seeded. Personally, I think this has been one of, if not the, most exciting couple weeks leading up to a tournament in recent memory with the amount of upsets and #1 seeds falling in conference tourneys. To make your life a little easier, I made a list of all the teams who have booked their ticket into the Big Dance by winning their conference tournament. These are the names you will see come 6:00 p.m. tonight.
