Idk anyhting about MSU either but they have the clout obviously.

Imagine getting a number 1 seed and then having to play UConn or Kansas in the 2nd round. Not what you would have thought possible at the start of the season.

Kansas is definitely not somebody I'd want to see in that game solely because they are still very talented.

I'm sure these are gonna be famous last words, but I'd be perfectly fine seeing UConn. They don't guard anybody and are up and down offensively. They have just been a flat out average team for basically the entire season. And Hurley is a great coach but prior to the last 2 seasons they lost in 1st round games to lower seeds. I don't have him in the "coach I'm terrified to see in March" category like Pitino.

We beat UF so we should be a 1 seed

You can still grab a 1 seed in the tournament if you really want. Just lose to South Carolina and Vanderbilt.

UConn was a powerhouse last year; who all did they lose for such a massive drop off?

Hey, we hosted NIT games last year, why’d you use a picture from 2009 or something?

George, I also noticed you had St John’s as a 3 seed but us as a 10 seed, even though we beat them on a neutral court. This seems inconsistent. Care to explain yourself?

Everyone except for Diarra and Karaban, who were very much role guys who aren't good enough to be more than that on a really good team.

Guys that played 40% of minutes last year:
- Tristen Newton (gone)
- Cam Spencer (gone)

- Alex Karaban
- Stephon Castle (gone)
- Donovan Clingan (gone)

- Hassan Diarra

Newton and Clingan were great college players. Spencer was an elite college pest player. Castle is probably going to be NBA Rookie of the Year.

McNeeley has been really good as a true freshman, but they brought in Mahaney from Saint Mary's and he's barely even in the rotation he's been so bad. Their young guys that are playing more have been up and down offensively and can't guard anybody (Ball, Johnson, Stewart, Ross).

Why’d you post a pic of the geezer that Mike White shoved in a locker?

While Arkansas did not look good on Saturday, they still do not have a bad loss this season and have a head to head win over Georgia, whom you have as a 10 seed.

My opinion is that Arkansas is still in as of right now, but a play in team. It also must be considered that Arkansas is without it's leading scorer the last two games in Thiero.


This is an updated SOS list. Georgia is likely going to have the benefit of a stronger schedule as well.

Ricky needed a loss early to show his guys they weren't doing things right.

He used you diddly. Just like the lady at the Italian restaurant.

We probably drew the toughest SEC schedule.

We played each of the 5 highest ranked teams on the road and got the top two teams twice

He is more than welcome to use us every year going forward.

Neutral court wins over the Big East champions seem to come in handy

All along Georgia's issue was they just needed to either pile up multiple wins against the good/not great teams (State, Vandy, A&M) or find 1-2 huge wins likely at home (Auburn, Florida) because they had a lot of wins, no bad losses and enough solid OOC wins. They finally grabbed one of those with Florida. Likely needed to win 2 of the last 3 (maybe even just 1) after that win to get in, and they already snagged one of them in Austin. If they split the last 2 they're probably not even in Dayton. If they lose both I'd guess they'd still be in but in the First Four.
