As strange as this sounds if we were to beat USCjr, Miss State, and Vanderbilt we would be 9-3 in the SEC with a game for 2nd in the SEC on the line against Kentucky in the Tommy Bowl

So if this happens and we beat Kentucky who would have the tiebreaker between us?

Two-Team Tie
The following procedure will be used in the following order until the tie is broken:

  1. Won-lost results of head-to-head competition between the two teams.
  2. Won-lost record of the two teams versus the No. 1 seed (and proceeding through the No. 14 seed, if necessary).
  3. Coin flip by the Commissioner.
Three-Team Tie (or more)
When three or more teams are tied, the following procedure will be used in the following order until the tie is broken. If two teams re- main tied after a tiebreaker provision, the two-team tiebreaker formula will be used.

  1. Best winning percentage of games played among the tied teams (Example: Team A is 3-1, Team B is 2-2 and Team C is 1-3 - Team A would be seeded highest, Team B second-highest and Team C lowest of the three).
  2. Best winning percentage of the tied teams versus the No. 1 seed (and proceed- ing through the No. 14 seed, if necessary).
  3. If two teams remain, coin flip by the Commissioner.
  4. If three or more teams remain, draw by the Commissioner.

So basically we need to beat Kentucky and Auburn if Kentucky doesn’t drop a game?

Tonight’s games:
Butler vs. Xavier
Tulane vs. Houston
Wisconsin vs. Illinois
Villanova vs. Marquette

Not sure about those last 3 games…Wisconsin is ahead of us, Illinois is pretty even with us. Marquette is behind us a few spots and Nova quite a ways ahead.

Butler loses
Tulane loses
Illinois wins

Guessing the UCLA and Arizona game doesn't really affect us much

It definitely does. Probably just an oversight. Arizona is a 3-seed according to Lunardi right now. UCLA a 2. I'd take a guess and say UCLA winning is in our favor. We have the head-to-head win against Arizona and there are fewer teams between us on the seed line.

I’ve been going off bracketmatrix which has Zona as a 2, I haven’t been including more than 2 lines out from our current spot. We are a 5 so I’ve been including 3-7 seed lines on bracketmatrix. With that said yea, UCLA has already beaten Zona, both are probably 2’s right now (matrix actually has Zona > UCLA), but another loss for Zona to UCLA could definitely move them to a 3/4 line.

Zona should run the table after tonight. Meanwhile UCLA has to go to USC and Oregon. Not likely enough losses out there for Arizona to fall below a 3. And since they’re our best win, I’m pulling for them over UCLA.

Zona was able to pull it out which I’m assuming helps us

It seems like we have an opportunity to go 7-3 down the stretch. That should be good enough for the 3 seed in the SECT. Losses vs Kentucky, at Arkansas, vs Auburn. The next few games will be tougher than originally anticipated at the start of the season but I’m hopeful we can pull those out.

I think we beat Kentucky at TBA.

Texas and Iowa St are basically neck and neck in the matrix but Iowa St us several spots back in the NET. Not sure about that one.

I can never root for UK. I understand the logic, but I want to be ahead of them every year in conference. They need to lose every opportunity they get.
