but it's been said many times that the committee does not look at conference affiliation at all.
They won't look down at the last few spots and say, we need to take Florida or MSU because the SEC can't only have 3 bids.
They'll look at your individual resumes, and if they stack up better than say a Minnesota, Rhode Island, or whoever it is that's fighting for that last spot with you, you'll get in. If not, you'll be NIT bound regardless of how many other SEC teams are in. It really is all about your individual resume.
