At some point, South Carolina's projected seed should fall below ours...

[Bogghawg]

If we win tonight, don't you think?
They just lost again.
Our record is better
Our RPI is 3 better than theirs (not including their loss today)
We BEAT them on their court
They are 4-6 in their last 10 games
We are 7-3 in our last 10 games.
And yet they are a 7 and we are a 9?

[FraggleHog]

Hogs just need to take care of business tonight. Ole Miss will be tough. But I agree...

[Hooch]

Only thing saving them is they have 6 top 50 wins. More than any other projected 7,8, or 9 seed.

Hmmmmmm

surely the committee would take into consideration when those wins occurred, no?  january USCe isn't stepping out on that court.

I don't disagree they are a different team right now, I just think it's more about tangible results for the committee instead of eye test or even reasonability.  They have 6 wins over the top 50 next most for any 7,8, or 9 seed is 4. Who knows what the committee will do it seems to change every year. Any reasonable person can see we are a better team than SC but again reason and committe don't often get put together.

[NuttinItUp]

If we win tonight, we jump them.

Book it.

[Hammibal Lecter]

I agree. Them losing today and a W by us tonight we are a 7. If they would've won today, we should have ranked the night game to try to move to a 10. Non issue now.

[JONAS]

We just need to win tonight.

Yes to everything.

[ErieHog]

It probably takes 2 more wins, including tonight.

That 6 RPI Top 50 wins is a big, big weight.

[PORKULATOR]

We win, and theirs goes below ours. We win TOMORROW... So does Florida's. We'll have the better record AND most recent Good win. A win against Vandy is NOW a Good win.
Wps

I think Ole Miss is more deserving than South Carolina of that 5th SEC bid.

[hogwood]

Lunar do has actually just bumped them UP to a 7 after I recently saw them at the 9... No idea why. Maybe he's confused? Right now we're at the 9. I think it should be reversed.

[Timfromlittlerockhog]

Book it.

We did win. And I agree. Teams are making pretty big jumps for winning games so far.

[tannerstahl]

They said on sec network that lunardi moved Florida down to a 5 seed...I can't find it on espn.com or twitter...anyone seen it?

He talked about it a bunch before the game (them slipping to a 5 seed if they were to lose)

There's nothing we could do at this point that would lead to us getting a higher seed than Florida.  Not even winning the SEC tournament by beating Kentucky would be enough for us to get a higher seed than Florida.

They aren't.

They really, really aren't.

South Carolina is faltering for what ever reason.   they will not last long unless the problem is solved.
