As I’ve said to me protecting home is priority 1, if you can go 9-0 at home and win 3/9 on the road you’re there. That’s where the frustration of the Vandy loss really comes in, you’d be sitting in such a great spot right now, but I digress. We’re currently 3-0 at home & 1-2 on the road, got 6 home games left and 6 road games left, so 6-0 at home and 2-4 on the road gets it done.

Road games are: @Auburn, @Oklahoma, @kentucky, @Texas A&M, @lsu & @Ole Miss.

Yeah I think we can win any game left on the schedule honestly, but it's about how we play...and on the road thus far I've not seen us play very well.

at OU
at A&M
at Ole Miss

at least on paper I like as 3 potential wins... 9-0 at home would for sure be key to a 1 seed.

If we lose relatively close Saturday night I almost count that as a W. I'm not into moral victories but after our Florida trip and it being Auburn if it's a tough close lose I'll be ok with it once I get over the initial "crap we lost" reaction I'll have.

If we win on Saturday, we have a tournament resume lol.

Meaning we could just forfeit the rest of our games and we’d still probably get in lol

Yeah but who wants a Cuonzo seed?

Yeah but who wants a Cuonzo seed?

I am getting flashbacks of all 3 of his seasons where the first half was so frustrating and then we'd show up the end of the season and it got close to all 3 seasons being too late. Then is a bad play decision and a questionable call away from the EE possibly.

3 of the top 10 teams coming up. Gonna be a really tough stretch to stay ahead of .500
At 4-2 now, must win one of these 3

Seems like baring something crazy Auburn, Duke, and Iowa state probably have 3 1 seeds. 4th 1 seed between Bama, Florida, us, Houston.

SEC seeding apart from Auburn being front runners to win regular season crown seeds 2-4 are really up in the air and probably going to come down to which teams which teams have hardest remaining schedules and health. Bama, Florida, TAM, ole miss, UK all battling for those other 3 spots.
