So then it's not a "play-in" for the tournament. Let's just let it be as is and stop arguing

Honestly I hate the play in seed but I'm glad we are in, let's go beat Pitt! It's Honestly close to an 8/9 match-up, it won't be easy but I think Jans has us ready to go

Yes the ncaa says it's a field of 68 now and they don't use any term called play in game. We are in the ncaa tournament
-
Also can we all agree that we hope Alabama loses and has to forfeit all wins later in the year?
-
It's a thin line. The Arkansas and Auburn seeds make no sense. It's like their last 2 months don't count.
Conversely, we beat Drake, Georgia, and Florida and we're a 5 or 6 seed. We lose to TCU, Marquette, or Utah and we're sitting at home.

Also, name the SEC teams we beat that are a higher seed:
We beat MO once, aTm, and AR. Our other 6 SEC wins were against OM, SC, LSU, and Fl. Our 9-11 SEC record did not help us.

Hate that we got one of the play in games but if we get past Pitt, we can beat Iowa state
-
We are the worse 3 point shooting team in the entire nation and we are in. Jans and the team have done an amazing job to get in despite this. Now, hit a few threes, beat Pitt and make a hard nosed run to make a statement and surprize the basketball nation! We should and can surprise some teams if we play like we did out of the gate when we went 11-1. Hail State!
-
Our resume straight up v NC State is better. Maybe were trying to spread conferences in the play in

If you have to win a game to get to the first round of a tournament im not sure thats in. We have to win to be the 11 seed

According to the ncaa the tournament is a field of 68 and they don't use the term "play in game" for any game. We are officially in the ncaa tournament.
Oh and the round were playing in is called the first four.The next game we would play would be officially the second round according to the ncaa

Yeah, I don't get that one either. Also don't get aTm being a 7 seed after finishing second in a league that 8 teams to make it in. Makes no sense to me.

They changed the terminology back a few years ago, so Pitt is among the First Four, but if we beat them, our game against Iowa State is officially the first round, not second.
But yes, it's obviously an NCAA Tournament appearance.
