Should move up to 6th and #2 national Seed. I honestly believe if Myah Taylor can up her game to what we saw today we will be a team no one wants to play in the tourney. Props to Vic for going to the 1-3-1 zone today it sparked our comeback.

I don't believe we'll jump either of them.
I think we'll jump Louisville. We beat a solidly ranked team and they lost by several to an .500 unranked team. Depends on how Uconn plays SC. If it's single digits, they'll remain ahead of us.
It's hard to say because Louisville beat Oregon. There's not too much of a difference in a 2 and seed for practical purposes. You need to stay away from a 4 seed though because you are stuck playing a 5 seed to get into the Sweet 16, which is dicey.
As long as we lock up an overall tournament 2 seed we are in good shape. Keep winning and make it to the SEC championship game and we will do that.
At this point unless something insane happens, we will be the 2 seed in the SEC and won't see SC until the championship game. They are the only team in the conference we aren't better than.
I want another shot at them on a neutral court. It won't necessarily be "neutral" with it being in Greenville, but at least there'll be a Bulldog showing there. We almost beat them at their place. Our girls will be hungry for revenge.Quote:

You obviously don't follow too closely Louisville has lost 2 in a row and our record is better than them.Quote:

We had a great week despite not playing our best and we still won by double digits against two ranked teams. We should be a solid #2 seed position. Also we beat LSU who is ranked now but not the time we beat them. Also 2 of 3 losses were by one shot to two #1 teams in America.Quote:

We were 10th in the committee?s Top 16 reveal last week, which would mean we were the second strongest 3 seed at the time and that was before picking up two quality wins this week. So we?re right in the mix for a 2. Granted, I?m not sure there?s much difference in being a 2 or 3. There is a pretty big difference in being a 3 or 4 though, so I?d like to at least stay on the 3 seed line.
We have a better SOS than both Louisville and UConn. If we beat Kentucky then we?re probably finishing 27-3 in the regular season. It?s going to be really tough for the committee to not give us a 2 seed in that scenario.Quote:

Depends. They got crushed at home by Oregon, if SC beats up on them too I could see us passing them.Quote:
