*UNC Wilmington may have received an at large NIT bid had Hofstra won the Colonial
**While Valparaiso and Monmouth have a shot at receiving at large NCAA bids, births for both squads would simply knock other NCAA bubble teams down to the NIT instead
***Northern Iowa was not projected to make the NCAA tournament and was at best, a long shot for the NIT heading into "arch madness". Even if Wichita State makes the NCAA tournament as an at large, UNI's NCAA bid bumps another NCAA bubble team down to the NIT.
****Gonzaga would have been a lock for an at large bid had St. Mary's won the WCC tournament
