Yeah, he is a load. Not well defended, but is still wide with great moves in the post.
So if my analysis is correct, so far only 3 teams that were top-seeded in their conferences have gotten auto bid so far:
Chattanooga
Kansas
Stony Brook
Is that right? Unreal.
Related note: Kansas must be destroyed.

Buffalo is in. Thats 7 games in the non-conference against tournament teams. If you add conference games we have now played 20 games against tournament competition in 32 games. I doubt any team can match that strength of schedule.
The bad part is we are 9-11 in those games. If we could have reversed even a couple of those loses we could easily be a 3 seed again.

With Buffalo winning, there is a case to be made for ISU as a 4. There is also a case as a 6 seed, but I'm just saying our SOS is off the charts
Our resume is stronger than Seton Hall. Their non-conf schedule was embarrassing with their best win being Wichita State who is considered a bubble team. As of right now they are 6-6 against tournament teams, we won 9 games. They also have bad losses against NIT teams in George Washington and Creighton, we having nothing of the sort.
The two wins against Xavier and Villanova I guess are comparable to our week where we beat Kansas and Oklahoma but after that I dont see much evidence on why they should get a better seed than us.

With 75% of precincts reporting, cyclones500 has projected Stephen F. Austin as auto-bid winner in Southland.
Stephen F Austin is up by enough that they could just hold the ball for the full shot clock, not score at all, and still win this game.
