From BA -
* Southern Miss is the last team in our field, just hanging onto a bid and making C-USA a four-bid league. The Golden Eagles also have an iffy RPI at No. 55, but unlike other teams in that range, they do have a 7-6 record against the top 50 and 15-11 against the top 100. They also finished hot, winning 13 in a row to end the regular season before going 1-2 in the conference tournament. They did enough to finish tied for second place in the standings in a stronger league than either the Southland or Mountain West. In the end, we feel they have the fewest red flags of the teams at the end of the bubble.
