    Hawaii (Big West) and Colorado State (Mountain West) have clinched their conference championships and their automatic bids for the NCAA Tournament.


    Today November 20th is when a majority of the smaller conference tournaments start, so much of the details on the remaining spots in the tournament will be determined over the weekend. A team from a smaller conference that did well in the regular season could be knocked out with a loss in their conference tournament. That could take out a team from a bigger conference because of the automatic bids vs. at-large teams.

    For the big Conference here is who should be in still with matches to play:


    Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC)
    Louisville
    North Carolina
    Florida State


    Big East Conference (do have a tournament)
    Creighton


    Big Ten Conference
    Minnesota
    Penn State
    Nebraska
    Wisconsin
    Purdue
    Ohio State

    Mountain West Conference
    Colorado State


    Pacific 12 Conference (Pac-12)

    Arizona State


    Southeastern Conference (SEC)
    Texas A&M
    Kentucky
    Florida


    West Coast Conference (WCC)
    Brigham Young University (BYU)


    Out of the 64 teams in the tournament, 32 teams are conferences winners and the remaining 32 are at-large teams.


    Right now I estimate that there are 19 slots remaining (excluding single bid conferences)

    After today, there will be two weeks left in the season before the Road to the Final Four starts the first week of December.


    The smaller conferences will start having their tournaments as they have finished their regular seasons. For these conferences, their tournament winner will most likely be the only team going to the tournament.
