SoG NCAA Men's Bracketology - First of February (9 SEC teams in)

- Resume skews towards rewarding big wins and punishing bad losses. Teams that beat a bunch of solid, but not many Q1 teams, won't fare as well in Resume.
- T-Rank is just basically the same as KenPom - efficiency rankings. Nothing to do with wins and losses.
- WAB is Wins Above Bubble. Similar to Strength of Record, you get points for/against for every game you play, so a lot of wins over solid (but non Q1A) teams will add up.
#2 - Tennessee
#3 - Alabama
#4 - South Carolina
#5 - Auburn
#8 - Kentucky
#8 - Florida
#9 - Ole Miss
#10 - Mississippi State
#11 - Texas A&M (Play In) (Last Team In)
#11 team out - Georgia

Would love for Auburn to go ahead and pick up their first Q1 win this weekend. Having a goose egg into February is pretty uneasy with seeding.

Georgia is 8 minutes vs Bama/Tennessee away from not only being in but being pretty comfortably in. They're a solid team.

Must be a weak bubble this season if Texas is considered as a team that makes the tournament.
They are dogshit this year

I mean, it'll have some bearing, but it's far from an end all be all.

I would just like to point out we made the National Championship game in 2014 (fricking UConn) as an #8 seed.
So anything's possible.

And UConn was I think a 7 seed

What was the highest NET ranking to get an at-large the past couple of years? Some of those look really high to be in.

I think UF has more gripes against that 2014 UConn team than UK haha. I think they had 1 loss outside of their 2 losses to UConn. I really liked that UF team with Scotty Wilbekin and Patrick Young

Pretty sure Rutgers was like 80th or something one of the last two years?
Edit : #77

In 2022, Rutgers became the lowest-ranked team in the NET era to earn an at-large bid. The Scarlet Knights got into the tournament with a No. 77 NET ranking, largely based on their 6-6 record in Quad 1.
Anyone with *** next to it is an auto-bid. I think 2 lowest at largest are Richmond (#68) and Nebraska (#60).
