Aren't y'all some big time basketball school? Doesn't that make your fanbase upset?

You said they could go 4-1, so I listed a few possible records they could end up with. They could go 5-0, 4-1, 3-2, 2-3, 1-4, or 0-5.

They'll probably go 2-3.

i think it's possible. the media seems to be somewhat pushing the SEC as "not so bad" for some reason.

No, we're sitting pretty- seasons change, tides turn, these are the days of our lives. You're happy when things go well (NOW) and you just let the rest roll off. As an aggie, I'm absolutely certain you know what I mean.

I really don't care if the ags make the tourney or not, they're not my team. But I'll wish you luck anyway. Oh and stop talking about 7th graders, Sandusky.

We're a lock for the tournament and #17, so no.

If we get to 22 wins we will be a lock with an RPI in the 30s. Let's not kid ourselves here.


Better go research history the committee has left out schools with 24 wins and top 30 rpi before.

How many times from a major conference?

Answer: 0. Ever.

No, not really. The Aggie experience is more fake it till you make it. The tournament that is.

Good luck to the pigs too.

I'm glad we're able to have this discussion this late in the season, but I'm more worried about beating South Carolina in a couple of hours. Not an easy game on the road.

Oklahoma as 33
Cincinnati as 40

There's a precedent so aTm isn't locked in just being a SEC team.

1. That OU team was 15-12. That was in 1994, well before the major rpi formula change of 2005.
2. 40 is not top 30

Seven year old TBirdSpur was in English class, when his teacher asked him to use dictate in a sentence. So he says, "Lass night I heard Daddy askin' Momma, 'how do my dictate?'"

A genie grants TBirdspur three wishes. TBird wishes to be white, uptight, and out of sight.

Poof, he's a tampon.
