    Don't think it would help if Vandy or Arkansas were to run the table and win the SEC tourney. One thing is for sure. Vandy, UT, and KY will dominate the ticket sales the rest of the way. Had Vandy not lost Robbins, I would have bet some money on them taking the tourney title and auto bid.

    We are listed at "last bye"

    I think at worst teams like Clemson, AZ state, vandy go on big runs that may push us to play in if we lose today

    But historically, a lot of the bracket is done by now

    Yeah, it does. We are back down to the Last 4 in. Let FAU lose and Clemson and Arizona St win their conference tourneys, and then see if it doesn't matter.

    The committee will like our resume. We already have the wins needed to dance. That's the difference this year than past. Not trying to accumulate them last second like a lot of these other teams

    Hadn't looked at net in a while... we were 46th before the Florida game. Hopefully we get a little boost there

    It looks pretty simple to me. Assuming we don?t beat Bama we are out of the tournament if 4 of the following things happen. If 3 happen it will be shaky but should make it. If only 2 or less happen we are pretty much a lock

    Clemson wins
    Rutgers wins
    Arizona State wins
    Oregon wins pac 12 title
    Ohio State wins big 10 title
    Houston or Memphis doesn?t win American
    FAU doesn?t win C-USA
    Boise or SDSU do not win MWC
    VCU doesn?t win A10
    Vandy wins SEC tournament

    So we need at least 7 of those 10 things to not happen to feel good.

    We stayed at 46 based on the latest update for today.

    I feel ok about making it, but I wouldn't be shocked if we're left out with a loss today.

    At this point I think it's about what others do. If it ended today I think we would be in. So if we lose today, are there 3-4 teams on the bubble or find a way to win their conference that mess up the bubble.

    If so we are going to be sweating it out.

    No matter what, Jans has us talking NCAA Tournament year 1 and I feel like he's got the chops to get us back to consistent respectability in basketball.

    I hate Kentucky more than anyone on this board because I live close enough to them to have to deal with their bandwagon fans but we want them to win tonight

    It would be a disaster. They would take our place. Luckily they match up terribly with Bama, but I don’t want to see them ge that far

    How in the hell would they take our place if we're not the last team in?

    Because they won’t take 9 SEC teams

    We need Boise to beat Utah State as Utah is below us and need Arizona to beat Arizona State tonight. Clemson got beat down and Oregon is out which is big. We need Florida Atlantic to win tomorrow to avoid a bid stealer, Purdue needs to put Ohio State out, and Houston and Memphis both winning tomorrow would eliminate another possible bid steal. At that point doesn?t matter if Vandy wins out, we still should be in as a play in at worst.

    They do go off that, but if aTm wins we are probably okay. If not it’s trouble
