So after last nights win Lunardi bumped us to 10 seed and now has 6 SEC teams in the bracket. I like the 10, because I think we matchup better with Villanova assuming LSU and NOVA win their first games. Also NOVA chokes every year!

Never look at matchups on bracketologies.. Only look at seeds. These guys have 0 idea who you will actually play.

10 seed is solid gold compared to a 8/9

10 seed matches up against a 7 which is rarely a team better than the 8/9.......then you avoid the dreaded 1 seed in rd. 2.

I hope LSU plays Villanova

I have been scouting their practices every day since I read this

Good to see Joe having 7 SEC teams in his top 72. SEC trending upward is a good sign for the Tigers.

I could care less about LSU's seed. I just want to be back in the hunt.

Are the brackets predicted on if the season ended today or how the bracketologist thinks the teams will end the year?

We need to avoid the 8/9 trap. I"m going to look up history at some point and determine a plan to get us there.

Hopefully LSU can keep winning and move up to a 6 seed. That would be about perfect.

UK 1 seed

Arkansas - 6 seed

LSU - 9 seed

UGA - 10 seed

Texas A&M - 11 seed

Tennessee - 11 seed

That's my prediction and I am tired of hearing how bad the SEC is (again). While the critics have been correct on this before, this year is much different and last night further proves that. South Carolina has two wins over two top 20 "Big" XII opponents, while LSU -- in the midst of a sloppy-playing portion of the season--beat WVU in Morgantown.

This is as deep as I have seen the SEC since the early part of the 2000's and possibly even since the late 80's when 7 teams would make the tourney. The days when Alabama and LSU were consistent tourney-makers and UK was as good as they are now...matter of fact, Arkansas wasn't even in the SEC and UK was on probation a couple of those years and we STILL landed FLA, Bama, Vandy, UGA, LSU, UT, and Miss State into the tourney between the years of '89-'91.

I haven't seen a bad team in the SEC this year, after finally seeing them all play. Auburn is very athletic and what team wouldn't want Bowers/ What team wouldn't want Williams III from Mizzou or the physicality of a Carrera from SC? A 3 baller like Riley Lachance from Vandy? Those 4 guys alone could be all SEC if they wanted to be. That's how talented the league is. Everyone knows the Harrison twins, M&M, and the big time players that have been exposed nationally. Every SEC team has a superstar and believe me, I remember the days when Auburn and Georgia and even LSU had nothing but "walk-on" type players.

Much like the overrated football in the SEC this season (and I never thought I would say that), the basketball gets treated with the same brainless and empty thought instead of true analysis. It may have the polar opposite outlook, but it's just as easy to say "LSU/Georgia/Alabama/Auburn is not a basketball school as it is to continuously chew cuds and spout off, "So and so (top 5 team) wouldn't win 8 games if they were playing football in the SEC!" I hope my six predicted teams get ion because each one is a nightmarish matchup for many teams. Georgia, for example, is as strong and fast as anyone. A&M can push people around. Tennessee is gifted with pure basketball prowess as much as any team. LSU arguably has the best 3 and 4 in the country. Arkansas looks quite a bit like the end of the Nolan/40 minutes of hell days. I'll go out on a limb and say that 4 of these 6 will also be in the Sweet 16.
