A cinderella that could be a matchup nightmare + more with Seth Davis, Joe Lunardi

With Selection Sunday just days away, this episode of The EvanMiya College Basketball Show dives deep into the chaos of Championship Week and the rapidly evolving NCAA Tournament picture. Evan Miyakawa is joined by Seth Davis of Hoops HQ and CBS to break down the weekend’s biggest games, debate which teams are built for deep March runs, and analyze how this year’s unusually weak bubble could shape the field. Later in the show, legendary bracketologist Joe Lunardi joins to go full bracketology mode, discussing which teams are safely in, which programs are sweating out conference tournaments, and what the committee may prioritize as Selection Sunday approaches. Evan also reveals a mid-major Cinderella team he believes could cause real problems in the NCAA Tournament.
