TL;DR

Miami (Ohio) saw its perfect 31-0 regular season end with an 87-83 MAC Tournament loss to UMass, but an at-large NCAA bid still appears likely. CBS Sports projects the RedHawks to slide from around the 10 seed to the 11 seed on Selection Sunday amid a weak bubble, with Akron now the MAC favorite for the automatic berth. The result injects uncertainty for other bubble teams, but Miami remains in the NCAA field for now.
