It would have been a Quad 1 win and big addition to our WAB number. Committee pays little attention to overall/conference records compared to the Q1/Q2 and WAB. It wouldn't have moved to needle if we were already in the driver seat for a 3 seed but we're chasing one of Purdue or Nebraska and trying to distance ourselves from Virginia and Kansas.


This. Beating UGA would have been close to 0.6 WAB while beating Ole Miss will be like 0.2 or something close to that. On the current rankings, 0.6 would jump us 4 spots to right behind FL at #7, even in front of MSU. Having MSU lose to UCLA would help a lot too. We aren’t jumping them on the seed line but the higher our WAB, the more they won’t be able to justify us as a 4 seed. If we are 7th in WAB indicating a 2 seed resume, they’ll likely only drop us to a 3 rather than all the way to a 4. If we’re 9th or 10th, they can justify dropping us 1 seed to a 4 due to our NET.

Does anyone have a good internet feed or app for the radio call? I used to use 100.9 app but they have shifted to baseball.

It's a tough call between Nebraska and Purdue. Nebraska has the better resume and is also a bit higher than Purdue in almost every current bracket projection but Purdue has the H2H win against us. We're definitely going to have to pass one of them to get a 3 seed. Best that it's a blowout to at least leave one last bad impression for the loser.


Hard to know, we’ve got a better chance of catching Nebraska in NET as they’re only 2 ahead of us vs Purdue is 4. Couple that with Purdue having H2H on our home court, and seems we’d be safer with higher WAB, higher NET, and no H2H loss. Probably need Purdue to blow them out like you said (and Nebraska had been fading a lot before surviving their last regular season game).


ETA: if we make it to Sunday and Purdue loses tomorrow, we should be ahead of both Nebraska and Purdue in WAB. I do worry what FL might do to our NET on Sunday, though.

That on the court interview with Philon and Slay was pretty good.
