I was torn. I picked Sister Jean's boys, but I found myself rooting for Drake when they made their push at the end.Damn. I was really hoping that Drake would win today. It’s always fun having them make the tournament.

Good lord I'm terrible at this.
I really REALLY hope I got CyCrazy's right. I'll feel bad if his score is my fault. He's on target to get two wins today, though.I'm right there with ya!![]()
Doesnt seem like its an auto bid if they dont win the conference tourneySo since Bellarmine won the ASUN, Jacksonville State goes to the big dance. Does that mean that JSU is a correct answer?
Jacksonville State receives the auto bid due to Bellarmine being ineligible for the tournament. In the event the conference tournament winner is ineligible, the auto bid goes to the regular season champion.Doesnt seem like its an auto bid if they dont win the conference tourney
Oh sheesh that is weird. I didn't realize they were ineligible.Jacksonville State receives the auto bid due to Bellarmine being ineligible for the tournament. In the event the conference tournament winner is ineligible, the auto bid goes to the regular season champion.
For sure. It’s because they are in year 2 of a transition period to division 1. When a school moves up from a lower division, they aren’t eligible for the NCAA tournament (or NIT) for 4 years. Kind of a dumb rule.Oh sheesh that is weird. I didn't realize they were ineligible.

Jacksonville State gets the automatic, not Jacksonville.I should have clarified earlier: Referencing my Post #4 in this thread, regarding ineligible teams:
"In some cases, the teams are allowed to compete in their league tournament … in those situations, we’ll give credit if that team wins its tournament, even if it doesn’t officially receive auto-bid to NCAAT."
(Noted earlier today in my roundup of championship matchups): Jacksonville gets the official NCAAT automatic, Bellarmine won tournament title and is auto-qualifier for NIT, per conference set-up. (At the time of contest-launch, I wasn't aware of ASUN's agreement)
No participants chose Bellarmine, but some did select Jacksonville, so they get a point.
Additional clarification: Jacksonville, NOT Jacksonville State.
Thank you for setting me straight ... long story short, I got confused with the "default auto-bid" to regular season champ. (the divisional setup threw me off, for some reason ... so then I thought it was whichever non-Bellarmine team was in the final).Jacksonville State gets the automatic, not Jacksonville.
