If we lose to Ole Miss that will basically put a nail in any NCAA hopes. If we lose to this Ole Miss team we don’t deserve to go to the tournament. Our only chance at that point would probably be to win SEC tournament

Maybe he meant 1 loss and 10 wins!
Up 2 spots in NET to #42
We need 3 of the last 4.
Yesterday Lunardi had us in prior to games being played.
3-1 to end the season and we probably won't need any help from the SEC tournament and I think likely don't have to play the play in game. 2-2 and it might be iffy depending on the losses. Can't lose to SC.
Utah will have to beat UCLA to likely get back to it being a Quad 1 win. Really would be great for TCU to take down Kansas Monday night.
Utah sorta fading has been offset some by Akron cracking top 100 in NET; that's now a Q2 win
Our fellow bubble team Clemson lost to an awful Louisville (4-23, 307 NET) team to fall to a net of 80. They are most likely dead in the water, improving every other bubble team's chances.
Wisconsin lost yesterday to drop their NET to 76. We want Oregon and North Carolina to lose today.
wellness check on reunion dog? anybody????
aw. them upside down pineapples
Latest Lunardi sheet has us as the first team not getting a bye. So the first team participating in the play in game.
Go 3-1 and we likely don't have to play in the play in portion of the tournament. We will get a bye and be seeded a 10 or higher.
North Carolina lost
Lunardi has Oklahoma State, Boise State, Memphis, and Nevada ahead of us with the last teams getting byes.
Memphis has Houston and is playing now. Oklahoma State has WV Monday. Nevada Boise has UNLV tonight and Nevada plays again Tuesday.
So a couple of games to pay attention to today and tomorrow.
Good weekend for us on the bubble. A win at Mizzou likely elevates us out of the Last 4/Dayton Play-In game level for the time being.
Tcu favored by 2 tonight vs Kansas. Tcu winning would help us out
Huge week for us. Two very tough games, and we really need to take 1 of them.
Our chances according to BPI...
At mizzou 47.0%
aTm 56.3%
SC 96.6%
At vandy 56.2%
We match up well with Missouri but it's at their place. I'm not sure what to make of them. Since we beat them they've beaten Tenn and SC but lost solidly to Auburn and A&M.
A&M is on fire. We need a great crowd next Saturday. i had tickets offered to me but my wife says I have to go to a crawfish boil so if anyone knows a good divorce attorney send them my way.
We need to win the last two home games. The one thing we have not done well this year is protecting our home court. We actually have some decent road wins and OOC neutral court, but have only beat 2 decent teams at home all year long. Win the two home games and game 1 of SEC tournament and I think we are in. The bubble is pretty soft this year.
The bubble is soft, but a blue blood like UNC sitting out there worries me. Our resume is head and shoulders better than them, 0 Q1 wins for them, but the committee is human and the thought of Carolina's fan base vs our fan base would have me nervous on Selection Sunday if we go 2-2 in the next 4 and go one and done in the tournament.
If we go 2-2 I don't think we make the tourney. Especially if it's SC and Vandy. Even though Vandy is playing well I'm not sure they can move up enough to be a Q1 win so that would be a Q4 and Q2 win. That would put us 8-10 in conference with no big conference wins. And our two biggest wins would be very early against Marquette and TCU without their leading scorer. I just don't think that makes us very attractive to the committee.
We've got to win at least one this week and both next week.
I don't think the SEC tournament would help us much unless we had a very deep run.
what ole reunion dog up to?
The win at Arkansas was a good conference win, but we defininetly need to beat Missouri and or Texas A&M to get a couple more Quad 1/2 wins to be comfortable. Beating South Carolina won't help much but losing to them will hurt alot. Vandy is much improved and are 8-6 in conference play with wins against Arkansas, Tennessee and Auburn so that will help some too if we can get it.
Tonight is a huge game for us. We need to win this game to put ourselves into the tournament. Losing it won’t be detrimental, but winning it will really elevate us with another quad 1 win
That’s a gut punch
MUST win Sat against AM
Win out regular season and we feel good regardless of sec tourney performance and should be at worst last four in.
Drop A&M and I think we need at least 1 win in SECT.
Drop anyone other than A&M and we need 2 wins in SECT.
Drop multiple and we need to win the SECT.
But at this point we still control our destiny. That was a tough Q1 Loss. Feels a lot like the year where we had all the quality losses "like 2010? maybe".
But the bubbly is a bubblin
Our NET didn't drop (43rd), Mizzou's didn't rise (51st).
Remaining schedule...
aTm 23rd
SC 242nd
At vandy 87th
