  1. The WCC should have two good semifinals Monday night in Las Vegas:  #4 Seed Santa Clara vs. #1 Seed 23rd ranked St. Mary's;  #3 Seed USF(CA) vs. #2 Seed 19th ranked Gonzaga. 

    NET's:  Gonzaga 16, St. Mary's 17, USF(CA) 63, Santa Clara 104.

    Re the NET, SLU's big, unexpected Win at St. Bonaventure improved SLU's NET by 21 spots to 196.  The Bonnies fell 8 spots in the NET to 82, which puts Bona squarely on the NIT bubble.

    Will they both get an invite?? Or only the winner???

    Indiana State's NET is 26, which should be IN irrespective of today's result.  Plus, Indiana State is the Regular Season MVC Champ.  Except there is precedence for snubs of mid-majors - Missouri State and St. Bonaventure.  And one of the talking heads on CBS Sports Network yesterday dubbed the Valley as a "one bid league."

    As for Drake, the Bulldogs had best win today.  Drake's NET is 47, which puts Drake squarely on the bubble for an at large  if it doesn't snare the Valley's Auto Bid.  The bubble is not a good place for a mid-major to be in this new Power 5(6) dominated era.
