I would think that the stars would have to align for us to get in if we were to lose tonight and win 2 more. Need some at large mid majors to win their conference tournaments.

with one being Vandy, in that scenario. Winning 3 of the last 4, with wins over Tenn and Vandy would get us in, I think. </p>

It would add a bad loss, but we would gain two quality wins (assuming we beat Florida in the SECT). We desperately need quality wins right now.

An Auburn loss does the most damage to our resume. Win two more games, I'm guessing 60% chance of getting in.

I think we need a good win moreso than taking on another bad loss. Another bad loss won't hurt us as much as losing to Tennessee will hurt us.

I am sure 615dawg will completely blow up my theory though.

We have to beat Tenn and UF to have any chance of the NCAA. What really pisses me off are those early OOC games that Stans lost once again this year. If you have a ****** OOC schedule you have to win those games, just ask Kodi... Those bad OOC losses and our SOSare really killing our NCAA resume. Thanks Stans..

has blasted the lack of top 50 wins. Even with our OOC schedule, we only have two "bad losses". Every team on the bubble has a couple of bad losses, but what puts us in a tight spot is not having the top 50 wins.

Granted, the two go hand-in-hand, but it's pretty obvious that we're on the bubble because we haven't beaten anyone - not because we lost to Rider.
