2022 Bracketology: Breaking down bubble teams after weekend’s results
The NCAA Tournament is right around the corner and after an exciting weekend, it’s time to take a look at the Bracketology bubble teams. First, let’s take a look at who’s currently safe on the bubble.
Who’s safe?
Alabama Crimson Tide (16-9)
The Alabama Crimson Tide escaped this past weekend with a 68-67 victory over Arkansas to strengthen their resume in the NCAA Tournament. They’ve won two games in a row and counting with Mississippi State on the schedule on Wednesday then a road visit against the Kentucky Wildcats on Saturday. They’ve got room to improve their resume still with a few weeks left.
North Carolina Tar Heels (18-7)
The North Carolina Tar Heels came out on Saturday and defeated the Florida State Seminoles in convincing fashion to show they belong in the NCAA Tournament field. Four of their five starters finished scoring in double-figures as they shot 55.2 percent as a squad and Armando Bacot notched his 19th double-double of the year.
Colorado State Rams (20-3)
The Colorado State Rams got an overtime victory over Boise State on the road this past Sunday to set their current winning streak at four. David Roddy and company are playing strong as March quickly approaches and following a victory over the Broncos, the Rams secured their spot in the field with the victory, regardless of the outcome, for now.
