If they win the SEC tournament, 6 is possible. I don't see them dropping below a 9 seed.

And if we’re being honest, we’ll probably be a 8 or 9 seed, a bad spot to be in. But whenever it’s all said and done, that’s a pretty good accomplishment for this team

It also shows how much we’ve grown as a program since Will Wade has taken over. We’re making the tournament in back to back seasons. That’s the most we’ve accomplished since John Brady, around 2005-2006 seasons

It's so good to be talking about seeding as opposed to "can we get in?"

Thank you Will Wade.

We need a strong finish to possibly clmb to a 7 to avoid a number 1 seed should we win the first game.

Yea, baring anything crazy, I kinda feel like we’re stuck in this range. It is what it is. Better to be in than out. Try to win a game and throw the kitchen sink at a 1 seed.

Naw, im gonna disagree. I dont give a damn what the net is. We win out, we are a 4 seed. Thats 2 more reg season wins and 3 tourney wins. Maybe even a 3. What everyone forgets is once a team gets in the top 30, its about whos the hottest. Whos gonna get the most viewers.

No way they let us slide down to a 10, or up to a 7.
they want us an 8 or 9- frick us into playing a 1 seed.

Seeding is, I guess, fun to discuss, but the key is avoiding the Death regions.

EX: East right now (Lunardi) has SD St, Dayton, Duke Auburn, Michigan Butler St Marys NONE of these, NONE scare me! Again, could beat any or lose to any! Bit that is what you are looking for (for our seeding)

Ex 2: Midwest Kansas Seton Hall, Lousiville, Ohio State, Colorado, Houston, Illinois Virginia, Indy GEEZ Thats brutal, even for 2020. All have bigs that we have No answer for!

So, take a look more at the teams in the region than facing a #1 or #2 Baylor, really good team, but I have 0.0% fear of Baylor.

A win tomorrow vs Arky would be HUGE to getting us to #7 or #6 seed.

Note Texas could be a QUAD #1 win in a few days!! I think it is still a Q2 win, Fact check that!

Our floor is a 9 seed. Our ceiling is a 7 seed, IMO.

6-11 is about right. Win the SEC tournament would probably get them a six seed at this point

agreed- I don’t think we move any higher than 6 winning out.

I just hope we don’t have to face KU or Baylor early.

Ceiling is a 5 if we win out and win sec tournament. Floor is 11 if we lose the next three. If we win the next two and 1 in the tournament we will be a 6 or 7 seed

Run table...5...would give them 25 wins.

Worst case...11/possible play-in in Dayton if they absolutely drop ball and get blown out in Fayetteville; lose to UGA at home...then lose 1st SECt game.
