Charlotte is really struggling down the home stretch as they lost again

Believe they kissed their hosting opportunity good bye. Believe Charlotte and Pittsburgh are eliminated

any more ugly losses and you’ll see some teams host as 2 seeds
Tennessee has done this before when Delmonico tanked the SEC tourney after getting hosting bid in 2001.
worked out anyway. Wake Forest lost opening game to Tennessee Tech and could not beat Vols twice in final.

NCAA changed the site anouncement dates as a result of stuff like that

Can someone find out who holds tiebreaker between Ole Miss and Tennessee.

if Tennessee, then the Vols clinched a first round bye.

Right now we’re sitting at 14-8 to their 13-9 against common opponents. Assuming that’s the tiebreaker I don’t know what the next step is if we both finish 14-10. Total Series won? If that’s the case we win in a landslide. It’s crazy to think they could 4-6 in SEC series and still be 17-13 in the league thanks to 3 sweeps.

Ties will be broken in the following manner:

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

A. Won-lost results of head-to-head competition between the two tied teams.

B. If two-teams are divisional opponents:
(1) Won-lost percentage within their division (over the 18-game SEC division schedule).
(2) Won-lost percentage of the two teams versus the No. 1 team in their division (and proceeding through the No. 7 team, if necessary).

C. If two teams are not divisional opponents:
(1) Won-lost record of the two teams versus the No. 1 seed using common opponents only (and proceeding through the No. 12 seed, if necessary).
(2) Coin flip by the Commissioner

2. Three-Team Tie (or more). The following procedure will be used in the following order until the tie is broken: (Note: If the three tied teams have three different records against each other, they shall be seeded in best-percentage order.) Otherwise, once the tie has been reduced to two teams, the two-team tiebreaker procedure will be used.

A. If all three teams are common opponents: Total won-lost percentage of games played among the tied teams.

B. Won-lost percentage of the tied teams versus the No. 1 seed and proceeding through the No. 12 seed, if necessary, using common opponents only.

C. If three or more teams still are tied, the Commissioner will conduct a draw.

Both teams have record vs Arkansas
Ole Miss had better record vs Vanderbilt

so it appears Ole Miss has tiebreaker

So Ole Miss needs 1 more victory than Vols to tie in these last 2 games

So. Tennessee magic number is 1.5

If I’m reading that right then it would be them because we both went 1-2 vs Arkansas and next highest seeded common opponent is Vandy they went 2-1 compared to our 1-2. That seems like a lazy and unfair (not just cause it hinders us) way of doing it vs. taking the entire body of work. I don’t think a team who goes 4-6 in league series compared to one who goes 7-3 should have the seeding come down to record vs. 1 common opponent.

I'm kind of wary about tomorrow night.

As much as we do well in rubber games, I'd rather not go into Saturday with the series on the line.

I wonder how our guys will fare against Brett Kerry tomorrow.

Let's go get round #2 and clinch the series!
