Yeah and that's one of the main reasons, if not the main reason that most have us at such a high probability of getting in if we get to 18 wins.

Our SEC schedule so far has been brutal compared to most of the other teams too. We've played LSU twice, Auburn twice, @Florida, @Kentucky, Miss St. Luckily our SEC schedule is about to start getting easier while most of the other teams SEC schedules look pretty rough from here on out.

This is a terrible idea imho.

Regarding the SFA debate, my opinion is that they should not be in the at-large conversation right now. 303rd in schedule strength.....and of their 25 games, FOUR have been against teams in my top-150 (where they're 2-2). Lumberjacks have played 13 opponents rated 251st or worse.

I mean...they beat Duke @Cameron Indoor. That’s the best win of the season by anyone IMO

They also lost at home to the Texas A&M-CC Islanders.

You want a bunch of half empty seats perfectly visible on tv while the completely full and rowdy student section is nowhere to be seen or did I read your idea wrong?

Our average opponent NET is 88 which is apparently 10th best in the country.

But can we maintain what we had Saturday? These guys really blew a lot of energy that day. Not just physical but mental. Perhaps with Herb’s spark we can. We will likely learn some things about Oat’s/Oak’s coaching skills going forward. Can he get a team focused and motivated to finish strong?
I‘m sure hoping he can. I really like what I’m seeing from him so far.

What were the NET rankings of the final 8 at large teams last year? That might go a long way toward making me more confident we make the tourney this year with 18 wins.
I really want to believe because I think 18 wins is doable.
We do have some quality close losses but we took a while to find our way in a new system and we lost to TN and ARK without Herb. Kira is playing vastly better. Shack seems to have more confidence, and Reese has improved also. We have fewer turnovers, our defense has improved and at times our rebounding is better. If we can continue to defend without fouling, stay close to even on the boards, and make 35-40% of our threes, we can play with most anyone. We have to have a positive contribution from our bigs, Beetle has to play within himself, and Forbes needs to give us 10-15 quality minutes. If Petty goes off we can really shine, but his role was altered without Herb, as he had to defend the best scorer for our opponent. Hopefully he can find his offense going forward. He really hasn't taken many shots lately.

Yeah I meant put the student section in site of the cameras.

Makes me happy to hear this and that he has some input into it as well! Now we just need to get going on construction!
