Siena has no chance in my opinion, and I strongly disagree with Scott that South Carolina is anything close to a lock. 10-6 in the conference means very little when you're 0-3 against the two Tournament teams and are 1-5 against the RPI 1-50. What's their good win? At Kentucky by one? At Baylor by three? Narrow wins against two NIT teams? They also lost to College of Charleston at home. I think they need at least two wins to be safe.
They lost at College of Charleston and I think the committee will not hold that against them since they have been trying to get big schools to go on the road non-conference and Charleston will be a tournament team. I agree that their resume is very weak but they went 4 games over .500 in a BCS league, and will finish with less than 10 losses and a top 50 RPI. That passes the smell test for me and I have a tough time seeing them left out against a relatively weak bubble.
