re: If we finish 4-2 can we make the NCAA tourney?

No. Need to go 5-1. That would give us an overall winning SEC record. We need one of those wins to be Bama (a high Quadrant 1 win). We can only afford to lose to Mizzou or maybe State.

We then need to win the first 3 games of the Sec Tournament. If we are 10-8, that should give us a 7 seed, give or take. We must win that first game against a UGA; win 2nd against a UT; win 3rd against a UK/Bama.

Win 8 of the next 10, postseason included.

The SFA game LOOMS large.

I think 22-13 would get us in the dance as a 10.

We lose to Bama tomorrow night and we then have to win SEC Tourney.

BIG, BIG wins to go along with a long-shot 8 and 2 finish. We defeated Michigan on a neutral court; swept A&M and Arkansas; and beat Houston. Bama added to that list and wins over other top 50...it'd be hard to keep us out.

Realistically? NO chance. NIT #2-3 seed with an extra game in the PMAC. And we should be okay with this. The Calvary are on their way for 18-19.
