Well, it was an enjoyable day. Unless you’re a bubble team. Then, things didn’t go so well.
At the top of the bracket and at the top of the Big Ten, Ohio State and Illinois were the winners in the conference tournament semifinals. Ellini moved back to Michigan for third place on the top line of the brackets.
Ohio State will still be the No. 2 seed even if they beat Illinois on Sunday, but the spot on which the bookies will come could still be decided on Sunday. Alabama is also the No. 2 seed and will also play for the SEC Tournament Championship on Sunday.
