Watching SEC now and the pontificators say Mizzou is a Sweet 16 team.

Please make it so!!! Go Tigers!

To add: I'm all in and have put my steel cup away. No groin kick expected!

Not sure where it'll end, but this basketball season is finally a ride that's fun to be on.

It’s all about matchups.

We run into a disciplined offense with a legit big, we’re in trouble.

But this season is gravy. We’re so far ahead of expectations, it’s hard to overstate it.

Lunardi currently has them as a 9 in the bracket with NC State, Houston and MD Eastern. I admit to knowing nothing about these schools but don't see any one that terrifies me.

You guys have a manageable schedule from here on out and you can make a run in the SEC tournament. If y’all keep this up, I’m sure you can make a mark in March. Gates has taken you guys far and I’m interested in seeing how you guys play from here on out

Those are my two cents

Think we’ll be around a 7 seed in the next bracketology. I could see us playing into a 5 seed by the season’s end.

If we shoot over 50% from 3 we can play with anybody. We were rebounded 38-25 and it still wasn’t a close game.

We need to get off the 8/9 line for sure. I wouldn't think we get better than a 5 seed just because our metrics aren't very good.

I say let's just avoid a 3 or 4 game slide. The next step for this team is consistency.

But it is fun to be this optimistic about the tourney.

If we're able to play into a 5 seed, I think we could make some serious noise. I'd also like to get out of Houston's region. Those guys can ball.

Let's play to our ability against LSU and MSU and then shoot the lights out against UT. We do that, then we are in great shape for a 5 seed.

That's exactly what it's going to say.

We can't go 5-5 and expect anything better than a 7-9 seed.

We need another upset or two, plus winning the games we should.

I thought bubble team going into the season.

Get in, and it's already a great season

I watched our teams in the 80's and 90's.
I don't think I will ever form expectations concerning the tournament again.

Jerry Palm has Mizzou as a #5 against SLU.

The stretch of @TENN, @ Auburn home against TAMU is a tough one. knock on wood but other than that, hard to see very many losing streaks.

Ditto. The '89 team when Norm went down on the flight, I always thought if that doesn't happen that team is a final four team.

Finally we are back to exciting ball.

Up to a 7 in the last Lunardi with Maryland, Texas and E. Washington.

I would be thrilled if they could stay in the 6-7 range and miss the 8-9.

Go Tigers!
