I think 17-13 puts us on the hosting bubble with a decent chance. 18-12 and we're locks to host. 19-11 or better and we can start to discuss a national seed...Doesn't really matter how we get there...

Also, a deep run in the SEC tourney would help -- although it's not a major factor to the committee -- it has the ability to alter RPI enough to make a difference for a borderline team.
I thought national seeds were determined before the SECT.
