Well that's odd...we were told last week that we're heading to the NIT. I guess these projections are wrong.

I think the margin for error right now for Georgia and Ole Miss are very slim.

Georgia needs to go 1-1. Another loss to Auburn probably does put the dogs in the NIT.

Ole Miss needs to go 2-0 IMO. They don't need a loss to Alabama or Vanderbilt right now.

I think the SEC still has a good shot at getting 6 teams in, but like you said, UGA can't lose to Auburn and UK but I think Ole Miss can probably go 1-1 this week IF they have a good showing in the SECT.

LSU get's 1 more win and I'm confident they get in.

If Georgia or Ole Miss lose a game they shouldn't, the positive is they likely gain an easier game in the SECt.

Having said that, they certainly cannot afford to lose said easier game in tourney.

Yea.

Arkansas is a lock to make the tourney.

Losing out would put Arkansas 23-9 with an RPI probably some place in the 30's low 40's.

@ South Carolina worries me this week. The good thing is that the game is not until Thursday.

I still think we can go 2-0 this week and be 25-6 heading into the SECt. Win two there and head to the NCAAs 27-7

We will not be going 1-1 this week. 2-0 at the very least

UK is just playing for history right now. Even if they shut it down until the NCAAT they are still probably a #1 seed

Ark. is just playing for seeding. With their remaining schedule I don't know if the 3 slot is really feasible, but they could easily fall to a 6 seed with a bad week

LSU is probably in the tournament in some form or fashion with a win over UT this week.

UGA stopped the bleeding last week and as long as they don't choke against AU they should be fine.

Ole Miss might be playing their way out of the tournament. Losing to UGA and LSU doesn't kill them, but if they compound those losses with losses to Bama and/or Vandy then things could get dicey

A&M is interesting. They don't have any bad losses but they've beaten no one of note but an LSU team that still isn't a lock for the tournament. It may kill them, but they have to be the biggest LSU fans outside of Louisiana.

It's probable that the 6 teams finish this week with the following records

UK: 2-0
Ark: 2-0
A&M: 2-0
UGA: 1-1
LSU: 1-1
OM: 2-0

If that happens, barring any big mid-major upsets, I think the SEC gets 6 teams in.
