Marshall is another joke bubble team. 9-7 in CUSA. Seriously?

Marshall wasn't on the bubble, but if they managed to come out with the autobid it would have knocked off a team that is on the bubble.

From ESPN Bubble Watch:
Marshall [21-13 (9-7), RPI: 41, SOS: 19] What are we to make of the Thundering Herd after Saturday? Marshall wasn't competitive against Memphis in Saturday's C-USA title game, which is hardly a crime; this Tigers team is peaking at the right time. But a win, or at least a more convincing effort, would have been nice. The Herd got a nice top-25 win over Southern Miss on Friday and has put itself into at least reasonable position for an at-large spot. The problem is the lack of marquee wins. Cincinnati, Iona and Southern Miss are this team's best victories, and decent though they are, it's not an overwhelming group of wins. But the computer numbers are really strong. There's a top-40ish RPI, a top-30 overall schedule and a top-10 nonconference schedule strength, and we all know how much the committee loves to see teams schedule well in the nonconference, whether that schedule translates into wins or not. They're in the mix, but this weekend's efforts might have been too little, too late.

Yup, Ole Miss was in Lunardi's "Next Four Out" along with CU
Xavier should be in with its win over St. Louis.
Honestly, the A-10 deserved to be a 3-bid league this year so this is fair (Temple, STL, Xavier).
Now, Xavier just needs to take care of St. Bonaventure tomorrow to keep it from being a 4-bid league.
