In this episode, I chat with Andy Bottoms of Assembly Call, who over the last five years has statistically been rated as the top bracketologist in his field. Within this discussion, we chat about No. 1 seeds, how weak the bubble is, the Wichita State conundrum, and then we break down all of the bubble. How safe should teams like VCU, Providence, Arkansas, Seton Hall, and Marquette feel? How can Wake Forest, Illinois, TCU, and Kansas State work their way into the field? We really get into the nitty gritty of teams' resumes, and how they're all just a jumbled mess right now. Finally, I make Andy answer the question that matters above all others in college basketball this season: IS DUKE BACK?
