No way.  We're a "lock".  Just playing for seed now.  Win the SECT, and we could go as high as a 5 seed (maybe a 4).

Lose to Tenn, and we're seeded between 7 and 9 (inclusively).
If you're not the lead dog, the view never changes.

Well, it looks like Alabama is going to beat MSU.  If they win the tournament, which SEC team will be left out?  MSU, UT & Vandy are locks.

No. It will just show that in the SEC, the better team doesn't always win. On any given night the worst team in the conference is capable of victory.

Well, I just don't think that the SEC will get 6 teams in.

Bama winning the SECT would not knock out another SEC team they would knock out the lowest rated at-large team that would have gotten in.  We are not the lowest rated at large team at the moment and we will not be the lowest rated at large team getting in on Sunday either.
Little known fact, but prior to settling on Guantanamo, the Pentagon wanted to house terror suspects at War Memorial Stadium.  It was deemed to be cruel and unusual punishment and in violation of the Geneva Convention.

Our win against Vandy plus the fact that most of the other bubble teams keep losing makes us as close to a lock as we have been since we won the SECT in 1998.

If Bama wins it there will be. It has nothing to do with how many SEC teams are getting it. If Bama won the SECT teams like VCU, Ohio State, Arizona, and Arizona State would be worried. Those obviously aren't the only ones, but if Arkansas doesn't win the SECT I kind of hope Bama does.

If Bama gets in, then there are six SEC teams in. We are a lock now. Worst case is a ten seed. Just for fun: You can take that to the bank!
Go Hogs Go.

no they will probably knock Kentucky out if Kentucky loses tonight.

Agree   KY will most likely win again tonight and that should cement their spot from that point forward.

No cause, ever, in the history of all mankind, has produced more cold-blooded tyrants, more slaughtered innocents, and more orphans than socialism with power. It surpassed, exponentially, all other systems of production in turning out the dead. The bodies are all around us. And here is the problem: No one talks about them. No one honors them. No one does penance for them. No one has committed suicide for having been an apologist for those who did this to them. No one pays for them. No one is hunted down to account for them. It is exactly what Solzhenitsyn foresaw in The Gulag Archipelago: "No, no one would have to answer. No one would be looked into." Until that happens, there is no "after socialism."

that cant happen.

the tornado already won the SECT.

Bama isn't winning the tournament.  I promise.  I don't even need special powers to tell you that one.

Do people really think the committee has a limit on the number of teams each conference can send to the tourney?

Absolutely not.  I just knew some pessimist would ask this...............

Bama won't win but if they did it won't matter.

jgphillips3

Bama won't have enough gas in the tank to win the whole thing.  I just don't believe they are deep enough.  For the hypothetical question though, I don't believe we would be knocked out even if they did.

JONAS

No need to worry, MSu wins.  Now let's hope that Georgia loses, so there will be no Cinderellas in the SEC.

I'd rather see them send the cat fans heading to the exits...........
