WBB Bracketology 5.0: You can’t ignore the mid-majors
Eugene:
2. Oregon (Pac-12)
15. Weber State (Big Sky)
7. NC State
10. Buffalo
Oregon just lost to Stanford but remains a 2 seed thanks to seven wins over RPI top-50 teams. Meanwhile NC State continues to roll and just knocked off Florida State in Raleigh.
Knoxville:
3. Tennessee
14. American (Patriot)
6. Rutgers
11. Quinnipiac (MAAC)
Tennessee got a much-needed win last week over Texas A&M, then followed that up by taking care of business at Vanderbilt. That helped steady what was a concerning decline for the Vols, who are still 7-3 in the SEC.
