my fault I've been banned. But anyway... 10-6 LSU is getting in. I think we get 5 teams in. I'd love to see 7 but not this year we have to get better as a conference.

Yeah, I have about made the same mistake with this thread. It gets bumped at least once a week

LSU can get in if they go 10-6, provided they have no more bad losses. They have two turrible losses.

There is a simple explanation for why Arky is so far behind Bama in every objective rating metric, and it is because the Hogs are 0-8 on the road and 0-1 at neutral sites. To show how awful that really is, you have to go to ateam with an rpi of 200 to find a similar road record. Houston, at 223, is 0-7 on the road but ironically beat Arkansas in a game played at Little Rock (neutral site) this season. That is Houston's only neutral site victory.

Whooo piggg suehyyyy Razorbacks!




Yes, we lost our best player before the Houston game, we lost a senior last week, and had another senior injured for a few games prior.

The selection committee factors this in.









Dale Denton is referring to the NIT selection committee.



I guess that Dale Denton and Hawgeye will now get back on this thread and claim that Arky is an NCAA tournament team since the Hogs have secured their first road win at Auburn. That was all this team was lacking, a road win, notwithstanding their rpi is currently in the 90s. The Hogs have turned the corner and go on a run to end the season, finish the year 8-8 in the SEC, win 2 games in the SECT and begin their Final Four drive as a 9 seed. The committee will look on them favorably as they won a National Championship 18 years ago, and now they have a head coach who was on that 1994 staff.(former champions exemption). I suppose they take Bama's spot, as the Tide can't compare in terms of basketball tradition. Bama gets snubbed two years in a row.

Pac-12 will get Cal, UW and Zona in. Maybe one more if another team wins the tourney.

You just saved them all of that time and train of thought.All they gotta do now is copy and paste.

Hogs, now that your rpi has fallen to over 100, could you please try to win a game or two so that it gets below 100 and Bama's two wins over you count.

Are you now trying to play your way out of the NIT? Blowing a 15 point lead to Ole Miss at Bud Walton. Home losses to FL, ALA and OM after going 17-0 at home. Sounds like the former national champs (1994) are still struggling a bit.

Pac-12 will be lucky to get two of those turds in the tournament. Wash is 1-5 and Ariz 1-6 against top 50 rpi teams. Thank goodness for Oregon at rpi48.

LSU going to NIT. SEC could only have 4 teams in if MSU doesn't get to 8-8 and win a game in the SECT. KY, VDY, FL and ALA in NCAA. MSU on bubble and no one else gets in without winning SECT.
