Bubble Watch Begins: Five teams who may find themselves in the Field of 68 without a conference title-- Mid-Major Madness

The At-Large Candidates

Green Bay Phoenix

Record: 8-3 | NET: 37 | SOS: 62

Charlie Creme Projection: Last Four In

Last Week: Def. Cleveland State 85-72 | This Week: Def. Purdue Fort Wayne 72-46, Jan. 5 at Northern Kentucky, Jan. 7 at Wright State

Good wins: at Creighton (NET 19), vs. Washington State (NET 23) | Bad Loss: at Northern Iowa (NET 194)

In a normal year, Green Bay might be at an advantage by playing in the Horizon League – traditionally one on the women’s side with real quality, even beyond the bubble. The Phoenix could bank on multiple conference games against top 100-125 NET teams to try and pad a resume. This year, however, it appears that Cleveland State and maybe Purdue Fort Wayne are the only such opportunities. Thankfully for Green Bay, however, Kevin Borseth put together a non-conference schedule worthy of at-large consideration, and his team took advantage with a pair of wins over high-major competition. For that reason, the Phoenix are better equipped than the Vikings for at large consideration, but they should try to keep conference slip-ups to a minimum to be safe.
