Montana State Bobcats vs Idaho State Bengals
NCAA Tournament Bubble Watch Daily

Monday | 10:00 PM ET | ESPN+

Big Sky enthusiasts enjoyed an exciting, if not expected, set of first-round results over the weekend. That bracket continues Monday night with the Montana State Bobcats taking on the Idaho State Bengals. The Bobcats have been turning things on lately, winning two straight on above-average shooting. They can continue their unexpected run against an Idaho State side that struggles to defend the three-ball. Montana State should cruise to the next round as +1.5 underdogs.
San Francisco Dons vs Gonzaga Bulldogs
Picking Every CBB Conference Tournament

Monday | 11:30 PM ET | ESPN2

A flat first-half cost the San Francisco Dons in last week's showdown versus the Gonzaga Bulldogs. Still, they made a resilient effort in the second half, staying within five of the Bulldogs. A more complete attempt could help the Dons pull off the stunning upset in the West Coast Tournament, but they'll have to overcome a +14.5 spread.
Cincinnati Bearcats vs Oklahoma State Cowboys
10 Biggest Must-See CBB Matchups This Week

Tuesday | 12:30 PM ET | ESPN+

The Cincinnati Bearcats have compromised their tournament footing, putting them at a disadvantage at the outset of the Big 12 Tournament. Consequently, they should enter Tuesday's matchup against the Oklahoma State Cowboys as short neutral-court underdogs. Cincinnati is the superior team offensively, and we expect them to make up some of the lost ground in the coming games.
Colorado Buffaloes vs TCU Horned Frogs

Tuesday | 3:00 PM ET | ESPN+

The TCU Horned Frogs aren't as good as their record implies. TCU has one of the worst offenses in the conference, and their defensive standing has eroded as the season has gone on. They gave up 76 points in their regular-season finale against the Colorado Buffaloes, dooming themselves to a repeat matchup in the Big 12 Tournament. Well, Colorado might open as short favorites, but we're chalking this up as a potential upset by virtue of TCU's higher ranking in the standings.

Tuesday | 7:00 PM ET | ESPN+

The Arizona State Sun Devils and Kansas State Wildcats must take the long way in the Big 12 Tournament. These struggling programs meet on Tuesday at the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City for their first-round matchup. K-State should open as favorites, but the Sun Devils are more than capable of stunning the Wildcats. Watch ASU pull away with the three-ball, ending Kansas State's underwhelming season.

South Carolina Gamecocks vs Arkansas Razorbacks
Wednesday | 1:00 PM ET | SEC Network

The Arkansas Razorbacks have this horrible habit of playing down to their level of competition. That could be their undoing in their first-round SEC showdown versus the South Carolina Gamecocks. South Carolina humbled Arkansas at the start of the month, besting the Razorbacks 72-53 as -1.5 favorites. They won't be chalk in this neutral court tilt, but they're equally capable of upsetting the tournament-hopeful Razorbacks.
Iowa Hawkeyes vs Ohio State Buckeyes
Wednesday | 6:00 PM ET | Peacock

The Ohio State Buckeyes face a daunting climb as they try to re-enter the NCAA Tournament field. Unfortunately, they might not even make it past the first rung. Ohio State has dropped four of its past six to fall to 17-14. The Iowa Hawkeyes can push the pace, forcing the Buckeyes to try and keep pace with their superior offense. As we've seen, expect Ohio State to come up flat again.

DePaul Blue Demons vs Georgetown Hoyas
Wednesday | 6:30 PM ET | Peacock

The DePaul Blue Demons were one of the worst-performing teams in the Big East this season, but they could pull off one of the biggest shockers of the conference tournaments. DePaul takes on the Georgetown Hoyas in a battle of lackluster offenses. Nevertheless, if the Blue Demons are on from range, Georgetown can do little to keep pace.
Oklahoma Sooners vs Georgia Bulldogs
Wednesday | 9:30 PM ET | SEC Network

The Georgia Bulldogs have excelled in the latter stages of the campaign, vaulting themselves into a tournament berth. However, much of that work can come undone with a showdown versus the Oklahoma Sooners in the SEC Tournament. Oklahoma is fighting for its tournament life, and the Bulldogs have struggled away from home. The Sooners can keep the dream alive in Nashville.
Indiana Hoosiers vs Oregon Ducks
Thursday | 12:00 PM ET | BTN

All the Indiana Hoosiers needed to do was avoid an upset loss in Eugene, and they appeared destined for the big dance. Instead, they dropped a 73-64 decision, casting doubt on their tournament aspirations. Another upset loss to the Oregon Ducks could be in the cards as these Big Ten foes take to the court in Indianapolis for a pivotal Big Ten Tournament matchup.
