Doubtful, like 0.057% chance doubtful.

A) Even though that's a helluva run by Arky, still have to "push other teams" out of the way. Several of them. Doing good is only have the battle; it's a comparison game.

B) They love them some conference record. Again, other teams would have to go back in time and ruin their conf record to be less appealing. That's in the books.

ETA: for example, if LSU was to end up facing UF in the SEC tourney finals and win, they still would probably be behind UF in seeding due to UF's 21 conf wins.

I get what you're saying, but this makes absolutely no sense. LSU has 21 conference wins also. RPI is what really separates those teams.

As far as Arky and a national seed, I doubt it, but I think that they are least in the conversation with another win. They may even get paired with Stanford instead of Kentucky. I know that there's no real seeding after 8, but I think that the committee will pair the first team outside of the top 8 with them.
