Central Michigan defeated Buffalo 96-91 to earn the MAC's automatic bid. Buffalo finished 16-2 in the MAC and is 27-5 overall; hope that's good enough for an at-large bid.

Southern lost to Grambling 72-68 in the SWAC final; Southern was the #1 seed in the SWAC, so if the WNIT is like the men's NIT, Southern's season is not over. Southern is 17-13, finished 14-4 in the SWAC.

St. Francis of Pennsylvania ended up losing to UConn 140-52. Finishes the year 24-10, 16-2 in the Northeast.
You can give up 140 points when a team scores 55 in the first quarter.
