NCAA Basketball Tournament Line Movers

A Line Mover is a team that

Simple put, if a line mover wins it conference tournament the cutline currently located between ranked teams 46 and 47 will move up one position, thus eliminating a team that would have received an NCAA Tournament bid based upon its rank. If your team is ranked on the bubble you want line-moving teams to lose in their conference tournament. The list contains 94 teams in 10 conferences, thus the cutline could theoretically move up 10 spots. The list size will quickly contract during the individual conference tournaments.
