Instead of necro-ing a thead from last year ( http://www.cyclonefanatic.com/forum/mens-basketball/140636-easy-bubble-solver-rpi-kenpom.html ), here's a methodology the guys at Basketball Prospectus came up with last year that worked well for determining in/out teams: Basketball Prospectus | How to End Bubble Speculation

The reason why I'm posting this again is because I have scripted up the EBS and (if I got crontab set right) it should update every day at 1 PM to help out our resident bracketologists:

Iowa State is currently at 48, and the bubble probably bursts somewhere around 50 right now, so just barely in right now according to this metric.

(P.S. Does anyone know if Dropbox links expire?)
