| a 6(somewhat unlikely) or 7 or 10 would be great. An 8 or 9 would be awful.
The possible 2s this year are all flawed in more than one way. While I wouldn't favor us over the likes of MSU, Duke, Memphis or Louisville, I like our chances a whole lot more than if we had to go up against a Uconn or NC in round 2. That said, if we get slotted at 8 or 9, I'm praying we're in the region with Pitt. | |

| Did you not watch the Louisville game last year, when UT had their "best team ever"?

| did you not watch that louisville/UNC game last year and see what UNC did to them?
I'd gladly take a rematch with louisville over any of those #1s. | |

| I think that if we won out, beat USC and UA and then won the SEC Tourney we could definetely move up to a 6 seed and possibly a 5 seed, and a very far shot at a 4. I would be very pleased with a 6 seed that gives us a good shot at the first round, much better it seems than a 7. I am still holding out hope though that somehow we work our way up to a 5 seed. I think if we win out it's very possible, i think that committee loves our SOS and RPI. Our current RPI basically has us at a 5 seed if you do the math, so win out and i think we may be able to get a 5!!! | |

I'm just figuring Louisville would likely beat UT as bad as any of the #1s would this year.

| With that setup with us as a #7....If we were to get past OK State....I think Michigan State would eat our lunch and send us packing. | |

Posted via VolNation Mobile | 1 win is about all I'd imagine most would expect. Anything beyond is gravy. | |

Posted via VolNation Mobile | I don't think we are getting excited because we beat Florida but it is good that we could get a road win. Florida had won their last 15 at home. | |
