Following a mass exodus of member schools following the 2020-21 athletic year, the landscape of Southland basketball was very different this season.

Mid-major conference realignment will continue after this college basketball season and it remains to be seen where the Southland fits into the picture. Nonetheless, the league will still be handing out an automatic bid to March Madness this week. While Nicholls managed to repeat as regular-season champs, both New Orleans and Southeastern Louisiana are also very much in the mix for a…

Heading into the Mountain West Basketball Tournament in Las Vegas, there is a widespread belief that the league will get at least four teams into the NCAA Tournament. Those in consideration for an at-large bid represent each of the top four seed lines in the MWC Tournament bracket.

Last year’s Pac-12 basketball tournament got turned on its head thanks to Oregon State. The Beavers went on an unforgettable run as the 5-seed to win the Pac-12 Tournament for the first time in school history.

One would have to go all the way back to 2016 to find the last time that one of the top four seeds in this year’s Big Sky basketball tournament advanced to March Madness. Montana state earned the 1-seed this season, finishing with a two-game advantage in the Big Sky basketball standings over Southern Utah. The Bobcats would certainly be a fresh face in the NCAA Tournament given that they last went back in 1996. Then again, a league…
