Obviously the Thursday night cap of games was a wild one that caused a lot of movement in the field.  First of all between Wednesday and Thursday's games we had 5 new autobids move into the field due to moving into first place in their respective conferences (High Point, Utah Valley, UC Irvine, Western Michigan, and Louisiana Tech).  Also we saw several serious games play out that caused some big movers up and down in the field.  

Here are the biggest movers:

Richmond  moved from an 11 seed to out after their loss @George Mason.  
Ohio St. and Iowa each moved down a seed line due to their losses. 
Oregon moved safely into the field after their win @UCLA.  
Arkansas moved from off the general radar to the last team in with their win @Kentucky.  
Memphis moved to the last team with a bye after their loss @Houston.  
St. Louis moved down two seed lines after their loss at home to Fordham.
