Alaska is Team of the Week, as it heads into the final weekend of its independent schedule needing two wins to essentially qualify for the NCAA Tournament. It's a remarkable story for a program that's dealt with a lot of pitfalls in the last few years, to say the least. ... We also talk about the end of the regular season in four conferences, look ahead to the postseason tournaments, and answer numerous listener questions -- including the evergreen topics of new conference alignments, and whether (or how much) 'bracket integrity' there will be when the NCAA Tournament teams are placed in Regionals.
