Just FYI:

quote:

Two-Team Tie The following procedure will be used in the following order until the tie is broken:
Won-lost results of head-to-head competition between the two teams.
Won-lost record of the two teams versus the No. 1 seed (and proceeding through the No. 14 seed, if necessary).
Coin flip by the Commissioner.

Three-Team Tie (or more) When three or more teams are tied, the following procedure will be used in the following order until the tie is broken.

If two teams re- main tied after a tiebreaker provision, the two-team tiebreaker formula will be used.

Best winning percentage of games played among the tied teams (Example: Team A is 3-1, Team B is 2-2 and Team C is 1-3 - Team A would be seeded highest, Team B second-highest and Team C lowest of the three).

Best winning percentage of the tied teams versus the No. 1 seed (and proceed- ing through the No. 14 seed, if necessary).

If two teams remain, coin flip by the Commissioner. If three or more teams remain, draw by the Commissioner.

Avoid Kentucky. Cool.

Beat Arkansas and A&M and we're in.

Possibly.

We may be in if we just beat Arky with how weak the bubble is.

Everyone loves to pick on LSU and the tiger fans have taken it well but it's so damn frustrating to watch them. They play zero freaking defense

Johnny jones is just the worst. The worst

We were a good team for a little stretch there. The Alabama game was the worst loss of the Johnny Jones era. Leading the conference, at home against what turns out to be a very average Alabama team that sucks dick on offense, and we lose.

The team has basically quit since then. And yes, Jones sucks.

I still don't believe Florida is in after semis. (Some people act like they are on the tourney committee). Witchita state losing in conf tourney hurts Florida pretty bad IMO


If they get to finals they have a chance. I just don't know how you can be so definitive that if we beat so and so then it's a lock. It just isn't. (Unless somehow you know a tourney committee member)

Looks good. I like our draw. Let's hope we see that consistent post play from Marcus and Skal we saw today.

Wichita isn't a lock for the NCAA Tournament, though.

But yeah, it doesn't help.

Did you watch our game against A&M? I don't wanna be on that side of the bracket either.

Why? So your shitty team can lose 3 times to our shitty team? Seems legit...

LSU is averaging giving up 51 points per 2nd half over the last 6 games. That is incredible. It's amazing that LSU even went 2-4 over that stretch (because they had 11 and 22 point leads in those two games at halftime).

And Vandy can score. 2-3 good three-point shooters, and an all-conference performer in Jones.

LSU should be able to win the battle on the glass, but our rebounding has been so shitty lately that I doubt we will.

I bet Vandy will be a 4 or 5-point favorite by the time the game tips.

LSU and Vandy are both quite capable of playing SECT spoilers this year.

Vandy is. LSU isn't.

I'm sure A&M fans would much rather face LSU. A&M/Vandy would be a pick it in the SEC Tournament.

ETA: And Vandy really isn't a spoiler. They'll probably be in the NCAA Tournament.
