So best upside is 4th and worst downside is 8th. Not bad considering the kind of year it's been.

I really hope that they miss out on the 8th seed because I heading up early in the morning on Thursday but still won't get into NYC until noon. and then i would have to somehow get over to Brooklyn from Time Square. Best case I would see the second half. I am really hoping for any game after the noon tip off.
PS has anyone figured out the odds of what each seed would be? Out of the 5 seeds we can still get, what is the most likely?
If GW beats UD, is it possible for them to be left at home? It appears that way.
I think...
#4 with a XAV win & TEM loss (25%) {18%}
#5 with a XAV win & TEM win (25%) {12%}
#6 with a XAV loss, MAS loss, & SJU loss (12.5%) {7.9%}
#7 with a XAV loss and a loss by MAS OR SJU (25%) {31.2%}
#8 with a XAV loss, MAS win & SJU win (12.5%) {30.1%}

Those would be the odds if each game was a coinflip. Unfortunately, Xavier is probably looking at about a 25% win probability.
VCU is probably something like 70% to beat Temple, UMass is maybe 85% to beat URI, and SJU is probably 50/50 at Charlotte.
With that, I'll say
#4: 17.5%
#5: 7.5%
#6: 6%
#7: 37%
#8: 32%
