Great win right there. Huge confidence boost! The Hump should be packed on Saturday for us to go 21-8. It’s fun for it to be fun again in March!

I keep hearing how more wins we need but my question how many more loses can A&M have?

I just checked it out. I see an early season win over West Virginia... besides that it looks like an average schedule with a bottom 1/3 w/l ration in SEC play. I don?t get the 6 seed.

It?s always been more about who you beat

I agree, but maybe we should look at making our pre-conference schedule a little tougher to avoid any doubt. I suppose since it's Howland's 3rd year, it's possible he still considered it a "building" year and maybe didn't think they would be competitive in the conference.

Vandy and Ole Miss are bad losses.

This is what I have a hard time understanding. Normally you could blame it on the one non conference loss but that?s to #11 Cincinnati. We have a winning record in a top 2 conference and we just beat the brakes off a good Aggie team. Finish 2-1 and make some noise in the SEC tourney and we in. Finishing 3-0 would be even better. I?ve been to way too many SEC tournaments to depend on them. It?s still the SEC refs.

11-7 is prob a 4 seed in the sec tourney
That’s 23-7
And if 8 teams from sec get in as they all have been saying for the past month they aren’t keeping out the #4 team in the league. I don’t give a **** what our out of conference schedule is .

Vandy is not a bad loss. Hardly anybody can win on that stupid court

That’s the truth. If we win out, it’s impossible for us to finish out of the top 4

Vandy isn’t a bad loss. Ole miss might end up being one.
But they beat Fla and Bama both in Oxford.

And everyone seems to forget the committee almost always awards team on how they finish last 10 games .
We would be 8-2 last 10

So it's better to LOSE to a good team than actually WIN a game. So dumb.

A&M is about to start tumbling. That 6 seed is never to be seen again. I'm guessing they'll drop to a 10 seed or worse very soon. Their OOC isn't going to carry them anymore. They are 6-9 in the SEC and will get punished for it. Just watch.

Truer words could not be spoken. Ultimately, I think we play our way into the tournament but it?s gonna hurt if we miss it. We played like a top 15 team tonight.

6th SOS. WV and Arizona games were on neutral courts, USC and Kansas were on the road.

At vandy
At Georgia
Bama

They may miss out entirely. We really need them to win though

This. By my recollection, only 2 SEC teams with a losing conference record have ever gotten an at-large bid. (Alabama and Arkansas both got in at 7-9 in the 00s. I didn't go through every year of standings to see if I missed any.)

Texas A&M is more likely to be 6-12 than 9-9 and I'm skeptical they'll end up making the tournament at all noww.

If we go 11-7 in the SEC- we are in the NCAA Tourney. End of story

Actually we don't. They'll stay a Q1 win for us even at 6-12. And them missing the tournament altogether opens up one more space for us. I hope they, Kentucky, and Florida all end up in the NIT.

Is a Q1 win vs a team with an rpi of 50ish as good as an rpi team in the 20s?

Thanks, Ace. Maybe it is ... if A&M is a 6 seed.

And if we finish #4 in the league we are already in the quarterfinals Which means lot of the other bubble teams outside of Aub and Tenn are going to be knocking each other out early.
Shit TAM might be playing day 1.

Do they look at the exact number, or is Q1 still Q1. Either way, just win out and we’ll remove all doubt

Theoretically we should prefer Alabama and Vanderbilt to beat A&M because we played those teams twice and A&M only once, so it would tease up the SOS number in our RPI, but I think the effect is pretty small. Also we could play A&M in St. Louis and have it all be moot.

Also Vandy could get into the RPI top 75 by winning out, making our loss to them Q1 instead of Q2. But who knows if the committee would even care about that.

Thank you. I agree with that.

A&M has lost 3 in a row now. They seem to be anything but a lock to me at this point. And like some have pointed out, they didn't really play inspired tonight. We did.
