Bracketology 2021: All quiet on the at-large front

With both top-seeded Gonzaga and second-seeded BYU advancing to tonight’s WCC championship game (9 p.m. ET, ESPN), no one’s bubble was popped due to the unlikely event of both falling in Monday night’s semifinals (even though Pepperdine did push the Cougars to overtime in the nightcap). So, today’s last eight in and first eight out remain exactly the same as Monday’s. That will also remain the case for Wednesday, even with Duke’s involvement in the ACC’s First Round (4:30 p.m., ACCN). A win over last-place Boston College won’t do much to move the needle in the Blue Devils’ favor, even if one would get Duke back over .
