Just for fun... winning out...

Losing out...

One more win should be enough to give the "checkmark" for making the tournament.

I keep repeating it and obviously I'd love to see as many wins as possible but I'll stay in the 'just get in, let it fly and the cards fall as they do' column.

It's fun that they're in this position though.

The tourney is raw cruelty on display so you just hope it goes well when it gets here.

Houston, Uconn, and Purdue are locks for 1 seeds. I think either North Carolina, Arizona, or the SEC champ will get the 2nd #1.

I think our ceiling is a low 2 or high 3, our non-conf will keep us from having a chance at a 1 and it's possible we lose 4 more games between now and then.

If you switched last years non-conf where we beat North Carolina and St johns we would definitely be in the running for a 1.

The top 2nd seed.

Didn't catch up much to Houston, but added some separation to 3rd place this weekend!

So only a 12% chance (+/-) we end up NOT a top four seed in the Conf Tourney. Gotta like those odds.

Shame Cincy didnt get them yesterday.
A) its a loss and tied instead of a half game back. Plus another road W for UH.
B) Cincy would be fat and happy rather than very hungry not to lose 2 in a row at home.

Hell, Iowa is inching toward becoming a Q3 win for us. Only 12 slots away at this point.

Getting closer to Q3 it seems like so far today.
