Conference tournaments are underway, and that can only mean one thing: The bid thieves are about to join the party. There are two kinds of bid stealers, of course, the first originating with upset losers in possible one-bid leagues.
This year, that means bubble teams should be rooting for the likes of Murray State, Davidson and North Texas. Losses by any of the three -- particularly Murray State and Davidson -- would take away one bid apiece from those teams riding the bubble.
The second type of bid stealers are the upset winners in expected multi-bid conferences.
