 Per the League website, specifically the preview piece for Saturday's games, the Ivy League has four men's programs with at least two NCAA wins since 2010: Yale, Princeton, Harvard and Cornell.

With four teams achieving that status, the Ivy League is one of only ten conferences which can make that claim: the American, the Atlantic 10, the Missouri Valley, the Mountain West, plus the five basketball power conferences (Atlantic Coast, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten and Southeast).

Essentially, our conference is one of the five mid-major conferences which can make that claim. Obviously, with only eight members, we have fewer entrants to put in the running, but each of our eight has more opportunities to win the auto-bid because each only has to beat seven competitors.

We ain't chopped liver. Not yet, anyway.
