Merrimack’s NCAA Tournament picture is starting to come into focus. At this point, the Pairwise almost doesn’t matter. There are 15 teams who can qualify for at-large bids, and Merrimack is one of them. There is only a 0.7% chance that the Warriors don’t finish in the Top 15, which means at this point, virtually the only thing that can keep the Warriors out of the NCAA Tournament is non-qualifying teams winning enough automatic bids in conference tournaments to move the cut line.
