With only Week 30 to go, I will just let you all know that Week 30 may take a little while to post on, I don't expect to get all 8 conferences done in 1 shot.

Along with the game scores, I will also be posting final standings for each conference, plus first round conference tournament pairings. I may have to spend some time figuring out tiebreakers for seeding in the conference tournaments.

Speaking of, the conference tournament will feature all 16 teams from each conference. The top team in division A will face the last place team in division B in the first round, and so on. Teams will still be seeded 1-16, with the top seed going to the division winner with the best conference record, 2nd seed going to the other division winner. Then from there, it will go in alternating order by division. For instance, if the #1 seed comes from Division A, then seeds 3,5,7,9,11,13,15 will come from division A. If the #2 seed comes from division A, then seeds 4,6,8,10,12,14,16 will come from Division A. Hopefully it's not too complicated, I feel this is the best way to seed the teams and keep every first round game a cross division game.

Wichita St. (15-7, 21-11)
Utah St. (12-10, 17-15)
Oklahoma St. (11-11, 18-14)
W. Virginia (11-11, 15-17)
Kansas St (10-12, 15-17)

Texas Tech (10-12, 15-17)
Oklahoma (8-14, 15-17)
Ohio (6-16, 12-20)
TCU (0-22, 5-27)

Kansas and Baylor get the automatic NCAA bids for winning their divisions, and Kansas gets the top seed for having a better conference record. Here are the Big 12 Conference 1st Round Pairings:

(16) TCU vs. (1) Kansas
(9) W. Virginia vs. (8) Iowa St.
(12) Oklahoma vs. (5) Utah St.
(13) Texas vs. (4) New Mexico
(11) Kansas St. vs. (6) New Mexico St.
(14) Ohio vs. (3) Wichita St.
(10) Texas Tech vs. (7) Oklahoma St.
(15) N. Dakota St. vs. (2) Baylor

Before I go any farther, let me explain the tiebreakers

1. Head to head competition
2. Record against team with best conference record.
3. Best overall record.
4. Coin Flip

These tiebreakers apply for a 2 team tie.

The same tiebreakers apply for a 3+ team tie. Once the highest seed has been determined, the tiebreakers will start over. For instance, if 3 teams are tied for 3rd place in their division, the first set of tiebreakers will decide who gets 3rd place, and the next set of tiebreakers will decide who gets 4th and 5th place. If anything at all is confusing, please let me know, and if you want to know how individual tiebreakers are broken down for any ties within a conference, I'll be glad to tell you. Hope you all are enjoying.

(9) Minnesota vs. (8) Ohio St.
(12) Toledo vs. (5) Green Bay
(13) Northwestern vs. (4) Michigan St.
(11) Nebraska vs. (6) Indiana
(14) Cleveland St. vs. (3) Wisconsin
(10) Purdue vs. (7) Penn St.
(15) W. Michigan vs. (2) Iowa

ACC Tournament- First Round
 

(16) VA Tech- 77 vs. (1) Syracuse- 97

(9) Pitt- 83 vs. (8) Notre Dame- 72

(12) Wake Forest- 62 vs. (5) Duke- 66

(13) Maryland- 55 vs. (4) Clemson- 64

(11) Florida St.- 71 vs. (6) BC- 61

(14) N.C. State- 73 vs. (3) Virginia- 68

(10) Manhattan- 61 vs. (7) N. Carolina- 79

(15) Miami (FL)- 68 vs. (2) GA Tech- 77 (OT)

A couple upsets in the first round here, surprised to see N.C. State beating Virginia.

Quarterfinal Pairings:

(9) Pitt vs. (1) Syracuse
(5) Duke vs. (4) Clemson
(14) N.C. State vs. (11) Florida St.
(10) N. Carolina vs. (2) GA Tech

I decided not to do game by game recaps, not even for the postseason tournaments, because quite frankly my time is limited between several part time jobs and other projects, so unfortunately this dynasty will be scores only. I've had a lot of fun with this so far, but I know that the heavy work is yet to come.

American Tournament- First Round
 

(16) Indiana St.- 58 vs. (1) Louisville- 84

(9) Akron- 73 vs. (8) Temple- 85

(12) San Francisco- 74 vs. (5) SMU- 67

(13) UCF- 67 vs. (4) UConn- 79

(11) UNLV- 73 vs. (6) Rutgers- 66

(14) S. Florida- 62 vs. (3) Houston- 61

(10) Boise St.- 57 vs. (7) San Diego St.- 78

(15) Cincinnati- 76 vs. (2) Memphis- 72

A good round for the lower seeds, as 4 of them won. We have our first regular season division winner gone as Memphis tumbles. I've always thought Cincinnati was better than their record showed this season. I don't think it matters though, Louisville is by far the best team in this WIS dynasty, and somebody will have to play a perfect game to knock them off in the conference tournament.

Quarterfinal pairings:

(8) Temple vs. (1) Louisville
(12) San Francisco vs. (4) UConn
(14) S. Florida vs. (11) UNLV
(15) Cincinnati vs. (7) San Diego St.

Atlantic Ten Tournament- First Round
 

(16) Belmont- 75 vs. (1) GW- 91

(9) Fordham- 77 vs. (8) Duquesne- 80

(12) St. Louis- 76 vs. (5) Stephen F. Austin- 87

(13) Rhode Island- 72 vs. (4) St. Bonaventure- 78

(11) Mercer- 85 vs. (6) Dayton- 66

(14) George Mason- 75 vs. (3) Richmond- 81

(10) St. Josephs- 79 vs. (7) UMass- 62

(15) LaSalle- 60 vs. (2) VCU- 75

6 is not the seed to be in the conference tournaments. I've simmed 3 first rounds so far, and the 6 seed has lost in all of them. Richmond becomes the first 3 seed to win. Other than that, not much to talk about in this ugly conference.

Quarterfinal pairings:

(8) Duquesne vs. (1) GW
(5) Stephen F. Austin vs. (4) St. Bonaventure
(11) Mercer vs. (3) Richmond
(10) St. Josephs vs. (2) VCU

Big East Tournament- First Round
 

(16) Delaware- 62 vs. (1) Villanova- 94

(9) Providence- 76 vs. (8) Seton Hall- 61

(12) Butler- 59 vs. (5) Creighton- 81

(13) DePaul- 68 vs. (4) St. Johns- 73

(11) Mid. Tenn.- 78 vs. (6) Iona- 79

(14) Harvard- 67 vs. (3) Xavier- 58

(10) Marquette- 64 vs. (7) BYU- 49

(15) Wyoming- 59 vs. (2) Georgetown- 76

Well good for Iona, who become the first 6 seed to win in their conference tournament. But now 3 is the seed not to be, as another 3 seed goes down in Xavier. No way should Harvard have done as bad as they did this season though.

Quarterfinal pairings:

(9) Providence vs. (1) Villanova
(5) Creighton vs. (4) St. Johns
(14) Harvard vs. (6) Iona
(10) Marquette vs. (2) Georgetown

Big Ten Tournament- First Round
 

(16) Illinois- 56 vs. (1) Michigan- 83

(9) Minnesota- 55 vs. (8) Ohio St.- 70

(12) Toledo- 73 vs. (5) Green Bay- 79

(13) Northwestern- 55 vs. (4) Michigan St.- 85

(11) Nebraska- 52 vs. (6) Indiana- 75

(14) Cleveland St.- 52 vs. (3) Wisconsin- 66

(10) Purdue- 71 vs. (7) Penn St.- 63

(15) W. Michigan- 61 vs. (2) Iowa- 75

Well this first round almost went like it should have, except for the 10 beating the 7. Some impressive looking teams in this one. Good to see a #3 and a#6 both win in the same conference.

Quarterfinal pairings:

(8) Ohio St. vs. (1) Michigan
(5) Green Bay vs. (4) Michigan St.
(6) Indiana vs. (3) Wisconsin
(10) Purdue vs. (2) Iowa

Big 12 Tournament- First Round
 

(16) TCU- 53 vs. (1) Kansas- 82

(9) W. Virginia- 68 vs. (8) Iowa St.- 53

(12) Oklahoma- 85 vs. (5) Utah St.- 81

(13) Texas- 69 vs. (4) New Mexico- 75

(11) Kansas St.- 75 vs. (6) New Mexico St.- 74

(14) Ohio- 91 vs. (3) Wichita St.- 99 (2 OT)

(10) Texas Tech- 71 vs. (7) Oklahoma St.- 83

(15) N. Dakota St.- 77 vs. (2) Baylor- 68

So another division winner goes down in the first round, opening up the bottom half of the bracket. All 3 Kansas teams are still in it, although 1 will definitely be eliminated in the quarterfinals. The Wichita St.-Ohio game is an instant classic.

Quarterfinal pairings:

(9) W. Virginia vs. (1) Kansas
(12) Oklahoma vs. (4) New Mexico
(11) Kansas St. vs. (3) Wichita St.
(15) N. Dakota St. vs. (7) Oklahoma St.

Pac 12 Tournament- First Round
 

(16) Washington St.- 60 vs. (1) Arizona- 75

(9) UCLA- 75 vs. (8) UCSB- 79

(12) USC- 76 vs. (5) Hawaii- 74

(13) St. Marys- 61 vs. (4) Gonzaga- 74

(11) Colorado- 74 vs. (6) Arizona St.- 77

(14) Washington- 64 vs. (3) Oregon- 80

(10) California- 51 vs. (7) Oregon St.- 70

(15) Stanford- 86 vs. (2) Utah- 76

And another division winner and 2 seed goes down, by my count that makes 3 now. Good thing some of those teams have already clinched a berth in the NCAA Tournament or they might not make it now! Sorry bbgunn, your Warriors fell just short and are most likely destined for the NIT.

Quarterfinal pairings:

(8) UCSB vs. (1) Arizona
(12) USC vs. (4) Gonzaga
(6) Arizona St. vs. (3) Oregon
(15) Stanford vs. (7) Oregon St.

SEC Tournament- First Round
 

(16) Miss. St.- 68 vs. (1) Arkansas- 75

(9) Alabama- 62 vs. (8) Missouri- 60

(12) Ole Miss- 65 vs. (5) Tennessee- 67

(13) Southern Miss- 85 vs. (4) Kentucky- 84

(11) Texas A&M- 65 vs. (6) LSU- 68

(14) S. Carolina- 64 vs. (3) Florida- 75

(10) Vanderbilt- 63 vs. (7) Auburn- 68

(15) Georgia- 58 vs. (2) LA Tech- 71

I'd like to say Southern Miss beating Kentucky is an upset, but it's really not. In reality Southern Miss had like a 26-5 record last season, but just couldn't handle the grind of playing mostly BCS teams in this what if sports dynasty. That's the thing about single elimination, a team can have a good game and pull and upset, or have a terrible game and see their season end earlier than it should. That's why March Madness is one of my favorite events! Anyway, enough rambling, it's time to reveal the quarterfinal pairings for the SEC Tournament.

(9) Alabama vs. (1) Arkansas
(13) Southern Miss vs. (5) Tennessee
(6) LSU vs. (3) Florida
(7) Auburn vs. (2) LA Tech

ACC Tournament- Quarterfinals
 

(9) Pittsburgh- 71 vs. (1) Syracuse- 72

(5) Duke- 71 vs. (4) Clemson- 68 (OT)

(14) N.C. State- 55 vs. (11) Florida St.- 67

(7) N. Carolina- 69 vs. (2) GA Tech- 81

No major surprises here, although I was expecting Carolina to beat GA Tech. Now it's up to Florida St. to play Cinderella.

Semifinal pairings:

(5) Duke vs. (1) Syracuse
(11) Florida St. vs. (2) GA Tech

American Tournament- Quarterfinals
 

(8) Temple- 64 vs. (1) Louisville- 88

(12) San Francisco- 54 vs. (4) UConn- 68

(14) S. Florida- 85 vs. (11) UNLV- 81 (OT)

(15) Cincinnati- 67 vs. (7) San Diego St.- 52

While Louisville continues to roll, 2 teams are getting hot at the right time after disasterous regular season. Both Cincinnati and S. Florida have a chance to be bubble bursters. 1 of them will be in the American Conference Championship game.

Semifinal pairings:

(4) UConn vs. (1) Louisville
(15) Cincinnati vs. (14) S. Florida

Atlantic Ten Tournament- Quarterfinals
 

(8) Duquesne- 75 vs. (1) GW- 74

(5) Stephen F. Austin- 80 vs. (4) St. Bonaventure- 74

(11) Mercer- 68 vs. (3) Richmond- 78

(10) St. Josephs- 77 vs. (2) VCU- 68 (OT)

So the top 2 seeds are gone from the A-10 tournament. Not surprising as this has been the weakest conference throughout, and the most open. This frees up an automatic bid for the 4 remaining teams. And it's always nice not to have to sweat out selection Sunday because you already know you're in the field. 3 auto bids out of the A-10 this season. Part of me thought GW would walk through this tournament, but part of me predicted a third auto coming from this conference tournament.

Semifinal pairings:

(8) Duquesne vs. (5) Stephen F. Austin
(10) St. Josephs vs. (3) Richmond

Big East Tournament- Quarterfinals
 

(9) Providence- 60 vs. (1) Villanova- 69

(5) Creighton- 82 vs. (4) St. Johns- 73

(14) Harvard- 77 vs. (6) Iona- 63

(10) Marquette- 87 vs. (2) Georgetown- 81 (2 OT)

A good one between Marquette and Georgetown, as another division winner bites the dust. No surprise to see Harvard in the mix, they are a good team that whatifsports didn't give favorable ratings to. I wouldn't be surprised to see them in the finals of this conference tournament.

Semifinal pairings:

(5) Creighton vs. (1) Villanova
(14) Harvard vs. (10) Marquette

Big Ten Tournament- Quarterfinals
 

(8) Ohio St.- 53 vs. (1) Michigan- 75

(5) Green Bay- 85 vs. (4) Michigan St.- 71

(6) Indiana- 74 vs. (3) Wisconsin- 69

(10) Purdue- 66 vs. (2) Iowa- 79

Michigan continues to look like the 2nd best team in this dynasty, and I'm a bit surprised at how easily Green Bay handled Michigan St. But then again they did have a tremendous conference season in the Big Ten. Can they do it to Michigan? Eh, probably not, but that's why you play the game.. or in this case, sim the game.

Semifinal pairings:

(5) Green Bay vs. (1) Michigan
(6) Indiana vs. (2) Iowa

Big 12 Tournament- Quarterfinals
 

(9) W. Virginia- 83 vs. (1) Kansas- 75

(12) Oklahoma- 65 vs. (4) New Mexico- 74

(11) Kansas St.- 57 vs. (3) Wichita St.- 74

(15) N. Dakota St.- 78 vs. (7) Oklahoma St.- 85

Wichita St. has an open road to winning this tournament, if they don't falter. But don't count out the other schools either. I thought Kansas was shaky coming into the Big 12 Tournament, and I still feel that way, although I would have loved to see a Wichita St.-Kansas final. Now I'm hoping for Wichita St.-New Mexico.

Semifinal pairings:

(9) W. Virginia vs. (4) New Mexico
(7) Oklahoma St. vs. (3) Wichita St.

Pac 12 Tournament- Quarterfinals
 

(8) UCSB- 52 vs. (1) Arizona- 75

(12) USC- 58 vs. (4) Gonzaga- 67

(6) Arizona St.- 68 vs. (3) Oregon- 62

(15) Stanford- 81 vs. (7) Oregon St.- 90 (OT)

Some interesting scenarios here, as we could potentially have an all Arizona final, or we could have President Obamas brother-in-law leading his team to the Pac 12 Title Game. But never, ever count out Gonzaga. That Arizona-Gonzaga semifinal could be a war, like all their games are.

Semifinal pairings:

(4) Gonzaga vs. (1) Arizona
(7) Oregon St. vs. (6) Arizona St.

SEC Tournament- Quarterfinals
 

(9) Alabama- 59 vs. (1) Arkansas- 69

(13) Southern Miss- 80 vs. (5) Tennessee- 71

(6) LSU- 63 vs. (3) Florida- 65

(7) Auburn- 91 vs. (2) LA Tech- 80

Southern Miss keeps making their case known to be in the NCAA tournament, even though the only chance they have is winning the SEC Tournament. At least they've gotten a couple wins to boost their record, and could easily be playing for the SEC title. Gotta think Florida will have a huge advantage in their semifinal against Auburn, but stranger things have happened.

Semifinal pairings:

(13) Southern Miss vs. (1) Arkansas
(7) Auburn vs. (3) Florida

Ugh... first Hawaii and now Alabama. At least Kentucky didn't make it.

bbgunn, I was very happy to see Kentucky get knocked off, but unfortunately they will probably still make the NCAA tournament in my dynasty. Not sure about Alabama. I'm pretty sure Hawaii is NIT bound at best, but they did better than I expected in the Pac 12!

ACC Tournament- Semifinals
 

(5) Duke- 72 vs. (1) Syracuse- 61

(11) Florida St.- 73 vs. (2) GA Tech- 58

Beautiful! Both top seeds go down in the ACC semifinals, leaving Duke and Florida St. to vie for an auto bid. A huge game for seeding purposes, but Florida St. needs this game more.

ACC Title Game:

(11) Florida St. vs. (5) Duke

American Tournament- Semifinals
 

(4) UConn- 63 vs. (1) Louisville- 68

(15) Cincinnati- 58 vs. (14) S. Florida- 48

American Title game:

(15) Cincinnati vs. (1) Louisville

Don't be fooled by the seeds, in reality Cincinnati was a team that lost just 5 times in the 2013-2014 season, so they have a very good shot to win this game. But.. Louisville has easily been the best team in this dynasty, so we'll see what the sim holds for this one.

Atlantic Ten- Semifinals
 

(8) Duquesne- 67 vs. (5) Stephen F. Austin- 58

(10) St. Josephs- 72 vs. (3) Richmond- 68

Atlantic Ten Final:

(10) St. Josephs vs. (8) Duquesne

In the wacky world of the A-10 this dynasty, I'm not surprised you've got 2 lower seeds fighting it out for an auto bid. The winner of this one will still be a low seed in the NCAA Tournament, and could even be in the First Four. The loser, however, will probably be relegated to our "Best of the Worst" tournament, although St. Josephs could still sneak into the NIT even if they lose this game.

Big East Tournament- Semifinals
 

(5) Creighton- 70 vs. (1) Villanova- 80

(14) Harvard- 67 vs. (10) Marquette- 58

Big East Final:

(14) Harvard vs. (1) Villanova

Again, don't be fooled by the seedings. In reality, Harvard was a very solid team, and Villanova has been iffy all season long in this. Despite all that, Villanova could assure themselves of no worse than a 2 seed in the NCAA Tournament by winning this game.

Big Ten Tournament- Semifinals
 

(5) Green Bay- 71 vs. (1) Michigan- 81

(6) Indiana- 59 vs. (2) Iowa- 69

Big Ten Final:

(2) Iowa vs. (1) Michigan

This is the only conference tournament that will have the top 2 teams in the championship. Both teams are already in the NCAA Tournament, and Michigan has all but locked up a #1 seed, but you can bet they'd like to verify it by winning this game. As for Iowa, they still have a chance at a very good seed, maybe a 3 or 4, so it seems they might have a little bit more to play for.

Big 12 Tournament- Semifinals
 

(9) W. Virginia- 77 vs. (4) New Mexico- 56

(7) Oklahoma St.- 55 vs. (3) Wichita St.- 79

Big 12 Final:

(9) W. Virginia vs. (3) Wichita St.

Some very impressive performances from both our semifinal winners, and I'm ecstatic that my Shockers made it to their conference championship, now they need to win it. But it won't be easy as W. Virginia is hot right now. Not to mention the only way they make the field of 68 is to win against Wichita St., otherwise it's more than likely NIT for them, maybe not even that. So I hope my boys are ready to play, cause it's gonna be a grind!

Pac 12 Tournament- Semifinals
 

(4) Gonzaga- 70 vs. (1) Arizona- 64

(7) Oregon St.- 72 vs. (6) Arizona St.- 60

Pac 12 Final:

(7) Oregon St. vs. (4) Gonzaga

Well so much for that all-Arizona final I thought we might have, but I'm ok with what we got. Gonzaga is NCAA bound no matter what, Oregon St. needs to win this game. I've heard through the grapevine that president Obama will be at this game to support his brother-in-law. ;)

SEC Tournament- Semifinals
 

(13) Southern Miss- 72 vs. (1) Arkansas- 63

(7) Auburn- 58 vs. (3) Florida- 82

SEC Final:

(13) Southern Miss vs. (3) Florida

Not surprised by those semifinal results. Both of these teams were very, very good in reality last season, and Southern Miss just didn't perform as well as I thought they would in the SEC. But they can correct all that by beating Florida in the SEC Title game, then anything can happen in the big dance! My money is still on Florida though.

Conference Tournament Championships
 

ACC Championship

(11) Florida St.- 61 vs. (5) Duke- 70

American Championship

(15) Cincinnati- 62 vs. (1) Louisville- 70

Atlantic Ten Championship

(10) St. Josephs- 66 vs. (8) Duquesne- 53

Pac 12 Championship

(7) Oregon St.- 77 vs. (4) Gonzaga- 79

SEC Championship

(13) Southern Miss- 87 vs. (3) Florida- 81 (OT)

Good for Southern Miss bursting somebodys bubble, well not good for whoevers bubble they burst. That was really the only surprise of the conference championships. Glad to see my Shockers take care of business and not have to sweat out a possible NCAA bid.

Now the goal is to have the other 24 conference tournament winners figured out by the end of the weekend, as I'm simming those out the rest of the week. Then next week I will starting figuring RPIs for the teams, that make take some time.

Well, as I sim through the other conference tournaments, I realize I made some huge mistakes when I selected the other teams to fill conferences. There are teams with better RPIs that got left out. I'm not sure what I was thinking when I selected the teams, but I definitely didn't select all of the best 32! Oops, I'll have to correct that mistake if I decide to do this again after the 2014-2015 season. I gotta say this is a lot of work, but it's been fun. Are you guys all enjoying it?

As far as RPI goes, I did winning percentage RPI for 4 ACC schools last night, and I don't think RPI will end up being too complicated. The formula may not be 100% exactly like what the actual RPI formula is, but it'll be darn close. If anybody has any questions, comments, concerns, fire away.
