I believe if we finish 8-5 in our last 13 games we will host and possibly get a national seed


I don't see us getting a national seed without either winning Vandy or sweeping 2 of 3 remaining after Vandy. Need to make ourselves the #2 in the west imo, but with our schedule it's going to be hard to catch Arkansas even though they're just one game ahead of us.

The west standings aren't going to mean much at all anymore. Too little parity and equality in the SEC schedule. All things equal, Arky's schedule has 3-5 additional "built in" wins -- since they get Tennessee and Georgia while we got Vandy and Florida. The RPI penalty completely erases the ease of schedule advantage though.

Arkansas isn't even going to host unless they basically win out. No SEC team has hosted in a long time with an RPI worse than #21...
