If we can win tonight maybe jump Aggies for a 6 seed?

Every win Hogs get in tourney will help and a 6 seed is much better than 7 as far as draws go.

  I saw that last 4.4  second play to beat A&M,  WOWIdk how much C. Sexton cost, but he was worth every penny.

I know its easier said than done because you don't want to foul, but man they just let him sprint the length of the floor and right down the lane.  I would think you at least want to get in front of him and maybe make him shoot a jump shot or something.

does this loss put A&M on the bubble
I don't think so.  Maybe knocks them back to an 8/9 seed, but they were firmly in as a 7 and possibly even a 6 before today's game.

They were a projected 6 seed before.  One loss won't put them out just like it won't put us out.

But could a win or two get us their 6 seed? I know some think wins and losses don't matter but.....

Ncaa has been pretty clear the last 2 seasons that alot of the seeding is done prior to the conf tourneys except on the top line and the bubble teams. Now, Hogs go win the sect and yea they likely go higher than a 7, but otherwise they are pretty much locked into the 7 range right now. Although, for all we know the ncaat committee already has them at a 6.

We just need to win. That will cure a lot. Tonight vs SC is a Quadrant 2 game so it won't help to win that much, but it will hurt to lose. However, the proposed "seeded" teams around us that lost also lost to roughly equally bad opponents.
It will matter for us if we then go and beat Florida. 

Of course I could be completely off. OU is still considered a tournament team and they suck.

It's bogus if A&M gets a 6 seed! Yeah they played a tough schedule but they lost a lot of games!
