[BEAR]

You can take Central Arkansas off the 7 division I wins possible. Its not possible anymore after the loss against NWST last Saturday.

[dbackjon]

NAU already has seven DI wins, so should be bolded in that category

[BisonFan02]

Take the SWAC teams out.

Because of Incarnate Word?

I included the new SLC schools as DI wins (ACU, Incarnate, HBU). I wasn't positive how they are being counted by committee.

Good catch, an oversight no doubt.

[Twentysix]

I will make a new table every week with updates to actual DI wins, and potential. When a team has actually clinched an auto bid, that will be added as well.

Take the SWAC teams out.

Like the Ivies I'll keep them in the chart, but will list "doesn't participate" after their name.

NCAA isn't counting them as division I wins. Best UCA could do is defeat SLU, Nicholls and SAM to get 6 countable division I wins. Playing IWU is just part of the transition lag of the NCAA. No biggie. It was a promising year and the fans are behind the Bears.

Good to know, recalculated Houston Baptist, ACU and Incarnate word as D2 wins.

Notable changes.

Illinois State and Central Arkansas cannot reach 7 DI wins.

Sam Houston State is actually 5-2 currently, and can at most reach 8 DI wins, not 10.

Several swac teams were recalculated, has no bearing on at-large bids.

[Twentysix]

Charlotte has been recalculated as a Non DI win.

Teams impacted:

Coastal Carolina can at best reach 11 DI wins, down from 12. Coastal Carolina has achieved 8 DI wins, down from 9.
Charleston Southern has been removed from the 7 DI wins, they only have 6. Charleston Southern can only reach 9 DI wins, down from 10.
James Madison has 5 DI wins, down from 6. James Madison can only reach 8 DI wins, down from 9.

This may be reversed. Seeking further publication by the NCAA or UNC-Charlotte.

So it would appear that, out of each conference, the max number of teams who could reach the threshold:
Big sky: 6
Big south: 2
CAA: 6
MEAC: 3
MVC: 6
*NEC: 3
OVC: 6
*Patriot: 2
*Pioneer 4
Southern 4
Southland 3

*conferences that will likely get one bid

so that's about 45 teams to trim down, or 39 if you take out the conferences likely to only get one bid

A lot of the teams on the lower ends of the list still play eachother.

The list will definitely thin in the next week or two.
