Five more days
I fell a little behind again. I decided to stay out until bar close Friday night and then worked the next three days. I’m not longer in college, and I learned that the hard way.
All the numbers are updated, the automatic bids are in, the number 1 seeds in conference tournaments are taken into consideration and we’re ready for crunch time.
There will be five more teams to punch their ticket today with one coming tomorrow. Then we will wait until the crazy day of Saturday before Selection Sunday. It’s the Christmas Eve of the college basketball world.
The final six championships come within hours of the show, and we’ll have our final Bracketology out before 5 p.m. CST.
As always, Deceptive Speed’s Bracketology is part of the Bracket Matrix.

Austin has found a love for blogging and will rant about anything. He may not always be right about college football, but he’s a great follow on twitter @watlher924 during hoops season.
