Mid-Continent: Oral Roberts vs Oakland: It's #1 seed Oral Roberts vs #2 seed Oakland. I don't know much about this conference I'll admit. Oral Roberts looks to have a better resume though so I'll go with them. Oral Roberts 73 Oakland 68
Sun Belt: North Texas vs Arkansas State: Interesting final as #1 seed South Alabama was knocked out early. Arkansas State is the #2 seed but North Texas comes in as the #5. They didn't do as well in conference as Arkansas State, but North Texas has a better overall record and got a couple more higher profile wins. So we'll go with North Texas. North Texas 74 Arkansas State 70
Horizon: Wright State vs Butler: Butler got all the national press this year, but Wright State actually got the #1 seed due to winning conference tiebreakers. They have actually done better down the stretch as well winning nine in a row before their season ending loss to Youngstown State. Meanwhile Butler went 3-3 in their last six regular season games and one of the wins was to a non-Division I team. Butler will definitely be in the tournament as they have wins over Notre Dame, Indiana, Tennessee, Gonzaga, and Purdue. Wright State is a little more desperate as they probably won't be getting an at-large bid. I think Butler will make sure their seed doesn't fall any further though and will make a statement in this game and win the rubber match. Butler 68 Wright State 61
