Blind Resume
Likely 8 of these teams make the field. Who do you got? Try not looking any further than what was given to make your choices.
Numbers have been updated on 3-9-17
Made one final update before selection sunday 3-10-17 (Team P was changed as their resume fell quickly in the past 2 days)

When I scrambled them up here were the 8 I came up with:
B, C, D, F, G, H, N, O with team E as the first one just missing
RE: Blind Resume - DrachenFire - 03-08-2017 04:16 PM
Came up with the same except swap R for N.

you can always spot the mid majors by their lack of opportunity against top 50 competition

Naturally, but the numbers still dont lie how teams do against quantity versus the ones who dont get opportunities. Its always worthwhile to look at teams without a name attached. I was a bit surprised with the teams I picked, as if I looked at the teams with a name my list probably would have been slightly different. Also the teams I picked will vary greatly, most likely, from the teams who actually make it

The big travesty will be if Syracuse gets in. Their resume isn't even close to worthy. But, when you look at the Bracket Matrix http://www.bracketmatrix.com/ more than half of the forecasters have them in.
On the other hand, Middle Tennessee St and UT Arlington have to be in. If they lose in their tourney, they have to get an at large. If I had any faith, I root for them to both lose in their finals, get their at larges and knock out the Syracuses, Illinois', Iowas, and KStates of the world.

I agree with Syracuse. They have done everything wrong and are still in contention all because they have a bunch of top 50 wins at home. They hit all of the check boxes that eliminate all smaller conference teams: Bad losses, Bad RPI, Bad Non Conference SOS, Subpar overall SOS, all wins are at home. Boggles my mind how everyone has them in and I personally have them as at best a 3 seed in the NIT

For those playing along. Below are the teams that made the tournament:
B, C, D (auto bid), E, F (auto bid), G, H, L, M
