I said I would stop posting facts and stats, so we'll just call 5th close enough.



Just trying to figure out why you think 9-7 in the SEC and 4 RPI Top 100 wins will be even close for a tourney look. Our RPI will be 55-60 at best. Our RPI is currently 78, I repeat, SEVENTY-EIGHT.

Where are you getting 4 top 100 wins? We have 3 top 50 and 4 top 100 RIGHT NOW. If we beat Moo State, Ole Miss and UGA which is all very doable, that's likely 2 more top 50 wins and 3 more total top 100 wins. If we have 5 top 50 wins that will put us in the convo with a win or two in the SECT.

Win and Opponent's Current RPI (per ESPN)Marquette: #11
Alabama: #32
Ole Miss: #50
Arkansas: #67

Potential Resume Boosting wins:
Miss State: #42
Ole Miss: #50
Georgia: #94 (a stretch but is a top 100 win as of now)

ETA: Our current ESPN RPI is 73, not 78 (not that it matters)
