College Hoops Around The Country [TN opponents, RPI, others]

If we want a 1 seed we want UK to win

Other than not reaching another milestone, I’m not going to be too bothered with the 5th overall spot instead of a #1.

If Oklahoma can hold off MSU that will clinch a bye for us in the SEC Tournament.

OU needed that win badly for tourney purposes. The committee is going to have a very tough job of comparing a team like OU to, say, Wake Forest, who has a far better record because their schedule is far inferior. I think OU is better than Wake but OU needs more wins to get in over a team like Wake.

Here’s the thing, LSU is 78 in NET. If they beat Florida, that could be a double whammy in the sense the Gators take a big L AND our game likely becomes a Q1 road opportunity.

 

[SGMVols]

There’s no way Florida stays ahead of us if they lose to LSU. I doubt the corn dogs hold on though.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Tennessee is the only top team that seems to be incapable of scoring on Kentucky. Hate that we let these guys beat us….TWICE. They play zero defense.

 

[hUTch2002]

That could be it. Maybe the schedule has been so grueling that when they play an inferior team, they don't take care of business the way they should.

But, I just don't watch them and go "wow"

Agreed but they’re going to set a record for most Quad 1 wins.

I don’t think it’s them.

We couldn’t hit the side of a barn when we played them.

Had we shot like we did against A&M, we would have beat them at least once this year.

LSU playing their World Series final. lol
They are putting up a good fight so far

 

[hUTch2002]

I was coming in here to say the same thing. You just beat me to it. I don’t see them winning it all. Too many ugly games they escape with wins in. It’s going to catch up to them eventually.

I will say that the SEC is just brutal. If you have an off night you will lose, even to the bottom 2 teams. SC took Auburn to the wire and they’ve been close with other ranked teams as well so it’s not just an Auburn thing. SC definitely should’ve beaten Florida.

I don’t anticipate the same this year but being #5 instead of #4 cost us the F4 last year.

I haven’t studied on it. Not sure what the possible matchups and locations are as the 4 instead of the 5. I don’t want to play games on the west coast. Or have to face Duke in a virtual home game like at MSG or the state of NC.

Glad there isn’t a 7’ freak a zoid to live in the paint this year.

 

[SGMVols]

Can’t say I had Bama being the team to end the Otega Oweh double digit scoring streak on my bingo card. But he’s still stuck on 2 points so far.

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

LSU just collapsed. Oh well. At least FU still goes to Bama and has TX AM and Ole Miss. I’m not expecting Georgia to be competitive.

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

Maybe Cal can do us a solid. Tying Missouri would be a great finish to a great day.

If we’re 4th overall we’ll be the #1 seed in the West. If we’re 5th overall (where we currently stand as of last Saturday) we’ll be #2 in the East opposite #1 seed Duke.

I don’t want to be in Duke’s bracket this year.

Flagg will be Edey 2.0

I don’t mind being in Duke’s bracket. I just want it to be a neutral court if we face them. Mashack on Freshman Jesus could be a fun matchup.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Was hoping LSU or Kentucky would do us a solid tonight, but ain’t happening. Oh well.

00tega fouled out 2 points…

Not really, we just need to keep winning and hope Houton stumbles

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Am I crazy? Every time I watch Auburn play, honest to God, I'm not that impressed.

You are not. I'll give them credit for keeping wining but they are very very very beatable.

Houston is a 2

I hear you but part of me would kinda chuckle if we made the FF and were swept by UK. It would still bug me but I'm old school.

 

[VolCalls]

Houston is irrelevant as long as we keep winning. We’re ahead of them.

 

[SGMVols]

Gonna step way out on a limb and guess that if Steve Forbes gets fired, his next landing spot, if there is one, won’t be Auburn.
