I predict (in alphabetical order):
Arkansas
Indiana
Lamar
Ohio
TCU
Tennessee
UCF
USC
Of these 8 teams, I think Indiana is the safest (almost certainly in) and Lamar is the least safe.
Other possibilities: Miami (OH), St. Mary's, Virginia Tech, West Virginia
Lamar lost in the Southland semifinals yesterday to Abilene Christian, which appears on the verge of getting the auto-bid (up 3 over TAM-CC with 6 seconds to play).I thought Lamar had an automatic bid.
Yeah I think they're waiting on the end of the Houston-Cincinnati men's game.5 PM? SC is listed as 5:15-6 PM on the main network and the ATP is on the deuce!
Can't they even get with it for their own programming???

This was what ESPN actually announced: "Fans will get a glimpse at the Committee’s discussions prior to Selection Monday. In the 5 p.m. hour of SportsCenter on Sunday, NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament Selection Committee chair Rhonda Bennett will join Zubin Mehenti and Michael Eaves to reveal, in alphabetical order, the final eight teams which will be considered for the women’s tournament."
So Voepel misread that as "at 5 p.m."
Neither Princeton nor Penn will receive an at-large bid. The Ivy is a one-bid league this year.so is Princeton safe even if they lose to Penn and does not enter this "Debatable 8" ?

Princeton has too many bad losses and almost nothing in terms of quality wins.
That's a lot of losing to have to overlook. They still suffered a bad loss to Yale with her playing, as well as a loss to Penn.The Ivy announcers did mention that 7 of Princeton's 9 losses were without Alarie but I get that will not convince most.
UCF should be considered for the WNIT
I'm very uncertain about them. The main thing they have going for them is their extremely high RPI.Lobo says UCF in.
