Because we’re 0-2 against MSU and TAMU. We’d have a losing record in any 3-way or 4-way tie

Yeah. We are either the 7 or 8 seed in any scenario. We lose out on any tiebreaker out there except if it involves Alabama, which means a loss against Auburn.

Maybe but it takes 12 Teams to jump in that tweet and maybe more with any bid Stealers

Win on Saturday and I think we are "first four out" at the worst. SOS is super strong, and our NET ranking should move up quite a bit. Memphis or Wichita State one is probably moving below us after tonight. Ohio State and Houston could drop with losses, maybe not below us, but within striking distance if we win Saturday.

It's going to get really interesting down the stretch. We really need that win Saturday.

The bid stealers are going to be the talk of town all next week.

Edit....Houston is probably safely in. I hadn't looked at their numbers in a while.

Keep in mind that beating florida at home didn’t really move the net. I’d expect no more the 1/2 spot jump after beating auburn

We got moved down 1 spot below S Carolina from yesterday. Makes no sense considering neither team played.
Seed List

Also, I don’t get how USC can be ahead of us. We’re tied head to head and our overall resume has better wins and not nearly as bad of losses.

We kinda got screwed last Saturday, we won, but so did basically everyone else. It won’t be the jump we got from a quad 1 road win, but I think we should see a better jump than from Florida. The way this season has been going, who knows?

Ohio State is also easily in. Don't know if you meant to say them or not.

I think it would depend on margin of victory. That was probably why UK made us jump so much.

Edit: I forgot we beat UF by 5, so I dunno. Difference between 8 and 5 is not much

Wow I don’t know who Lipscomb new coach is but he’s done a hell of a job. One game away from that Dance now

Win Saturday and then win 2 in the tournament means we will have closed the season and tournament winning 5 out of 6 with 4 of those coming against the top 4 of the conference. I think thatd be enough to get us in. Puts us at 20 wins and wed be looking like a good tournament team.

The thing right now, is if we can play consistently and not turn the ball over a gazillion times we have a shot to beat anyone. The problem is we've struggled mightily with those 2 things all year. If we lose Saturday or early in the SECT I'd be willing to bet itd be because we reverted back to those 2 things listed above.

That’s an issue with teams full of talented freshmen. They don’t always gel how they should. We need them to keep winning.

I think they lost something like 7 straight games when Quade Green got ruled academically ineligible. He was a big piece of thier team.
