Bunch of Conzo hatin going on up in here.

He made it comfortably his last year here and, if not for a blown call on Stokes against Michigan, would've been in the Elite 8!! Then you bunch of hillbillies ran him off!!!

We have different definitions of "comfortably".

 

[BruinVol]

Lol. Yours is much better than his. His definition is false.

 

[dougvolfan]

We have lost three straight. A win against Alabama would do alot to get back some confidence going into SEC tourney

Sucks for Belmont last night.

Could be an NiT opponent

Others would say that if not for the so-called petition, then the team would have never started playing up to their ability and even made the tourney.

I'd come down for that game. Assuming we have home court.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Doubtful we're going to be concerned with the NIT.

Or maybe not.

 

[FleeceItOut]

Or maybe not.

What's the route to the NIT? One more win? Two to be safe?

 

[Johnnyreb#VFL]

I second the above question and add, did we officially bust bamas bubble today?

 

[VolsSportsFan]

I think we need 1 more to be a lock.

 

[VolnJC]

Chance that California, Auburn, and Tennessee could all be in the NIT...that would be interesting
Cal would have to win a couple in the PAC-12 to make the tourney now imo...two losses in a row and both games (Utah and Colorado) they scored in the 40s

 

[bleedingTNorange]

Zo gonna Zo, Cal loses 5 of last 6 games to finish season...went from pretty safely in to out of the tourney.

 

[bleedingTNorange]

This is what I've got currently, however GT looks like they'll lose to Cuse so they'll be out IMO...

Syracuse
Wake Forest
Rhode Island
Illinois State
---------------------------
Georgia Tech
Vanderbilt
Kansas State
Illinois

17-16 and I think we might be in the NIT, but would be at the mercy of bid-stealers

 

[Dallasbowlin]

hopefully this game gives the players some life. Make it to the sect final, and get a high nit seed. I'd love to beat uk one more time.

Lunardi thinks MTSU gets an at large bid probably around a 12 seed

If they don't win their conference tourney he meant, they are heavy favorites to win the C-USA tourney and get the auto bid.

I agree with him.

I can't wait to see who the committee has in the Vandy and Syracuse matchup.

 

[bleedingTNorange]

Oh I agree too that they'd get in, I'm just saying as of now they still look like they'll get the auto bid most likely.

I was with you.

Who you got Syracuse or Vandy for one spot?

 

[bleedingTNorange]

I was with you.

Who you got Syracuse or Vandy for one spot?

Today? 110% Syracuse.

I think better question would be WF or Vandy?

20 pts or so of RPI isn't easily dismissed imo.

It's close
