Some bubble results broke Oklahoma State’s way on Friday, perhaps opening the door a little wider for the Cowboys to find their way into the Big Dance.
CBS Sports’ Jerry Palm and ESPN’s Joe Lunardi, though, still have the Cowboys as the first team out of the field of 68. Here is a look at their “Last Four In” and “First Four Out” in order.
| Palm | Lunardi |
| Mississippi State | Mississippi State |
| Utah State | NC State |
| Nevada | Pitt |
| Rutgers | Arizona State |
| Oklahoma State | Oklahoma State |
| Vanderbilt | Nevada |
| Arizona State | Clemson |
| North Carolina | Vanderbilt |
Of that group, six played Friday with only Utah State and Vanderbilt winning.
