Hey guys, I'd love it if the conference auto-bids could be added to this list!

OK, I'll clean it up: Conference | Team | Conference | Team | America East | Albany + | Mid-Continent | Oral Roberts + | Atlantic Coast | Duke * | Mid-Eastern Athletic | Florida A&M + | Atlantic Sun | Belmont # | Missouri Valley | Tournament this weekend | Atlantic 10 | St. Louis # | Mountain West | Tournament this weekend | Big East | Louisville # | Northeast | Long Island + | Big Sky | Sacramento State + | Ohio Valley | Jacksonville State + | Big South | Winthrop + | Pacific-10 | * | Big Ten | * | Patriot League | American + | Big 12 | * | Southeastern | Florida * | Big West | Cal Poly * | Southern | College of Charleston + | Colonial Athletic | Hofstra + | Southland | Stephen F.

Big West:
Cal poly is obviously in. Unless the beachless really tanks it the weekend, they are a lock as an at large.
I think that Northridge is off the bubble. They tie for 4th place in the Big West with UC Irvine and lost both conference matches to UCSB. Given that the Big West is the #6 conference, I just don't see 4 Big West schools getting in.
UCSB is still on the bubble. CSUN helped us Saturday night by beating Irvine. Had they not, UCSB would have been tied with Irvine for 3rd in the Big West while splitting with UCSB and with a win over Poly. It might have been hard to chose UCSB in those circimstances because Irvine would certainly have had the conference tie breaker. UCSB's problem will be our RPI. Last week our RKRPI was 61. Beating Davis probably doesn't help that. This weekend we play #92 and #140. Overall three wins might increase it up from 61, but I can't see it being a lot given the opponent's strengths. Things we we have going for us:
1.) A top 10 SOS ranking going into the conference season.
2.) A win over Wisconsin and a major beating of Pepperdine
3.) 3rd place in the #6 conference
Against us:
3 bad losses, UNLV, Fullerton, Irvine.
2 of those losses coming late in the season
I guess we'll see come Sunday.

It also helps that UCSB has a win over LMU, who defeated both Santa Clara & Pepperdine this year.
The Big West has some good wins. Cal Poly over Texas & Hawaii, Long Beach over Missouri, UCSB over Wisconsin & Pepperdine.
Has Pepperdine beaten anyone ranked (outside of their conference)?

In the "lesser" conferences, lower ranked in the RPI, any league champions ousted int tournaments that should receive consideration as at large teams? From the chart above, Atlantic Sun, Atlantic 10, Conference USA, metro Atlantic and Southwestern Atlantic meet that criteria. Assume Big East will get St. John's, at least, in at at large, Conference USA should probably get another, and maybe Atlantic 10? If so, who? Too lazy to look all this up.

Tulsa has a terrible RPI. St. Johns' is decent. Dayton's is borderline.
Three tournaments to be played.

st johns might end up being the most interesting dilemma for the committee. espcially with those matches they are still to play this week.

Decent RKPI and it'll go up, even if they lose -- and they need eastern schools. I say they are in.

Well - don't look now, but Arizona State is now 14-14 and 6-11 in the Pac-10. They close the season at home against Arizona. If they win this one, I think they're barely on the bubble and hoping that the committee looks kindly upon them.
I'll go on the record that I thought it was iffy that they might finish with a winning record, but that was predicated on the idea that Oregon would likely beat them.

Thanks for the update, (R)uffda. Howzabout an updated list of the 33 non-automatic qualifiers, preferably in order of seedings, with the bubbles identified by asteriks?

Those records are as of 11/20, by the way -- to go with the rankings.
They are ranked by RKPI (excluding the automatic qualifiers). For the purpose of the chart, Stanford is the Pac10 champ, PSU is the Big10, and Hawaii/Utah/UNI win their tournaments.
Obviously, all those teams -- except maybe UNI -- are in, regardless.
