[Herky] Bubble Watch

[Dennis v]

good news on the losses by bubble teams (especially Ga Tech, Wake Forest, and Clemson).  But Iowa needs to get some work done.  2-1 in BTT would nail it down, even if other bubble teams have worse post-season conf. tourneys.

Iowa definitely needs to win today (and most likely tomorrow), but there were a few losses from teams on the bubble last night. 
Syracuse goes down to Miami
Wake loses to VT

Clemson and GT get beat.

Many teams start playing today.  Root for the upsets (except for the Hawks, of course!)

  First, I know most people think that Iowa needs to win against Indiana and then probably Wisconsin to get in the tournament.  For the fun of it, I also wanted to check what one of the experts say for the teams that the Hawkeyes would be competing against for the final spots.
