There really aren't many mid major bid stealers, if there's gonna be some it'll be major conferences.

True. Although I could see a team that is currently behind us making a run to put themselves in front of us in every single major conference as well as some mid majors. Maybe not a team that is out but a team that is just behind us on the bubble. I think this conference tourneys are going to be wild.

There are plenty of posts in this thread that say beat Mizzou and we are in. And it was mentioned on the last page so I posted my opinion.

I've not seen people agree with that. Joe Lunardi said it, but I haven't seen many really agree with that completely.

A loss to Arky won't drop that below 50 IMO. Do we become the 1st high major to be left out? I would rather not find out lol

Agreed - that would be about a 5 point drop, no more. So long as Arky doesn't then go on to win the SECT, we'd be fine with a first round loss. I'd just rather win that game and then try to play up from a 10 seed to a 7 seed against Fla.

I'm not sure anyone is saying otherwise? That would mean they lost their first game?

Actually, I think I'd say that. I think we are in now, to be honest. We have been not only winning, but winning with style. Our SOS and RPI are tournament worthy. I think we are playing for seeding from here on.

It's possible. A loss to say Arkansas makes it more likely than a bad loss to South Carolina. In order for it to happen just about every other bubble team would have to lose, and no bids be stolen.

As of this moment we are about the 5th to last team in IMO, which would have us out of the play in games which would be nice. We win 1 and we could get up to the 10 seed line, 2 wins 8/9 seed, win the Sect 6/7.

Know what you mean, but 3 carbon copies of great defense and intense offense have got me pumped.

I've been hollering about the defense all year, it's finally at the level it should be. The crazy thing is, it's not like we are shooting the lights out and that's why we're blowing these teams out.

We have shot a combined 36% from 3 over the last 3 games, that's not much higher than our average. The defense has just really picked up, turnovers are back down, and offensive rebounding is giving us a lot more shot attempts than our opponents.

My point being, playing this kinda defense and we should be in every game. And I don't think you've seen this squads A game either over these last 3, that's the crazy part.
