Florida would have the advantage in a neutral for as opposed to having to travel to Knoxville.

But Florida is the number 1 ranked team in the nation. I don't think losing to them hurts to badly as long as it's competitive.

Margin of victory/defeat doesn't matter to the committee, at least it's not supposed to

By the way, a plug for my alma mater, East Tennessee State. In 1989, playing as a 16 seed against #1 seed Oklahoma, they were the team that came the closest to pulling the upset. They lost 72-71 on a end of game shot. The following year they were actually ranked tenth nationally at one point during the season.

Here's the scenario, ETSU starting three freshmen and two sophomores almost upsets Oklahoma with All-Americans Stacey King and Mookie Blaylock. Each had outstanding NBA careers. ETSU led until the closing minutes of the game and had a free throw line jumper to win it. Found the game on Youtube! Go back to the short shorts! :)

Win 1 game an we in (prolly gonna be Arky, but USCjr or AU works too). The only way I see us not gettin in after we win our first game would be if like Mizzou beat Florida an then they beat us. but man, I dont see Florida losing to them Mizzou boys

Which really isn't asking too much

If they play like they have the last couple weeks Arkansas will be a speed bump. Win by double digits. Then it'll be Florida and we aren't the same team since that first debacle. We played them well the second time and weren't even to our hot streak yet. Beat UF and Lord help Kentucky because they wont have the insulated Rupp to fall back on. Beat those a-wipes by 30 and win it all. Then it wont matter what any committee thinks. The only thing they could screw us on then would be the seeding.
