Mid-Major Five

1. Northern Iowa

Lose at Loyola-Chicago…and move up to #1? What kind of operation am I running around here?!
Yes, that’s right – UNI is atop the Mid-Major Five. There’s no shame in losing in overtime at Gentile Arena, and the rest of the contenders mad plenty of missteps themselves. UNI continues to be the highest-rated true mid-major per KenPom, still holds a one-game lead atop the best qualifying league (the MM5 excludes the A10, WCC, and MWC), and the Purple Panthers are still tracking for an at-large bid, should they need it. That’s #1 enough for me.
