Yep. I'm quite surprised they didn't get UK and Duke in the same region.

Yeah this was the same case when Auburn was a projected 5 before they won the SEC tournament and still a 5 after. The committee doesn’t care.

On the other hand the SEC should end the tournament on Saturday for several reasons.

TAMU deserves to be in and Tennessee deserves to be higher.
Playing Jax State in round 1 is interesting for Auburn.

There has always been a Big10 bias on the committee. But Michigan in?
A&M got hosed. They had this set up three days ago.

And now we see Auburn was overall 5. Yeah they don’t care about the tourney at all.

But congrats on the tourney ut.

Had to get Duke to Greensboro.

Rutgers and Michigan are really questionable.

SEC underrated and Big 10 overrated yet again

At this point, I don't think TAMU could've earned a way in save via the auto bid attached. IOW, if an auto bid weren't attached and they won the SECT the NCAA still wouldn't have let them in.

Honestly wonder if A&M had lost by 1 instead of 15 or whatever if it would have made a difference.

3 teams ahead of them. It wouldn't.

There’s a clear 8 teams that are better than the rest. If you’re one of them, you shouldn’t be worried but for maybe one team in your region

Doubt it. Nothing has shown anything from the SEC tournament mattered.

Either way, Buzz has done a tremendous job with Aggie. I imagine they’ll do well in the NIT

It's hard to argue against that at this point. I shouldn't be this salty about it, but I am.
Posted on 3/13/22 at 5:59 pm to BigOrangeLoyalist
I bet Aggy gets a 2 seed in the NIT

You are right and it seems the SEC needs to move the championship game to Saturday.
A conference tournament title should absolutely be in the equation.
