Bracketology 3/5/2021

We’re now less than 10 days from Selection Sunday. The last two nights were a little quieter on the bubble, Seton Hall dropped their third straight against UConn and has a tough game at St. John’s to end the regular season. I dropped the Pirates from the field and moved Boise State in in their place.
