SEC tourney seeding
- Thread starter jimisize1
- Start date
I am quick to jump to the conclusion that A&M wins but you know, LSU could surprise them. I really doubt it but crazier things have happened.
I expect A&M wins at LSU and Ole Miss loses at Florida.
That would make us a #6 seed. We'd be in the sub-bracket with the #3 seed which would be Tennessee or Alabama (if they beat Auburn today).
Neither of which I want to see. Beating UT 3 times would be so tough, and Bama would have to have an off night. That's probably the most likely scenario though.
You'd rather face an Auburn team that beat our brains in?
Give me UT and Bama we could beat.
After thinking about it I would rather be the 5.
Play early afternoon Thursday.
Get an easier game early Friday afternoon.
We would have to play Auburn on Sat at noon provided we and they win.
But what if they don’t win?
We would get the 8 or 9 seed.

Me too. Also, your Auburn jinx didn’t kill us, Nail
Beggers can't be choosers at this point.. I'll take anyone anytime at this point. Would be really tough to beat Tennesse for a 3x though.
I think we do match up well with Tennessee. Their bigs aren’t slashers, which is one of our weaknesses. Their guards aren’t physical slasher types and Lanier is a finesse perimeter player which we can guard well. That isn’t to say we would win a third time but we have good answers for their problems. Would to see Tennessee again as compared to Bama, Florida or Auburn
I always get a kick out of people saying it’s hard to beat a team 3x. No kidding. The hardest part is winning the first two times.
Zeigler does tend to play awful against UK too. So that's always a plus.
Toughest thing to do in sports statistically, that's why everyone says it lol.
SECT doesn’t matter. We will get a quality game that will help our resume, win or lose.
Big Q1 win today sits us firmly on the 3 line.
10-9 vs. Q1. 7-7 vs. Q1A, I believe.
11-10 combined Q1/Q2. No bad losses.
It would take somebody going on a major tear to knock us down off the 3 line. .

Yes ... well ... in the 2019 NCAA Regional Final against Auburn, it turned out that the third time was the hardest won to win.
1-19-2019 - UK 82, Auburn 80 - at Auburn
2-23-2019 - UK 80, Auburn 53 - at Rupp Arena
3-31-2019 - Auburn 77, UK 71 (OT) - at Kansas City
I still cry about that game. I was at that final 4, would have been a dream come true to see UK at a final 4.
So I don't see Ole Miss winning at FL so if so we are the 6 seed right?
Apparently.
Missouri, Ole Miss and Kentucky all have the same records. Each team is one and one against the others. None of these teams beat Auburn. Kentucky beat Florida. Therefore, Kentucky is the highest seed.
You throw all three teams in head-to-head. Then you start looking at what they did versus the top seed. Then the second seed and on down.
I expect Mississippi State to blow them out as it looks like they've quit.
That A&M win over Auburn loams large now for Kentucky for those who rooted for Auburn.
We are lower in SEC seeding for sure
We are likely lower in NCAA seeding (or the same but they get region preference before us possibly)
I never understood why some of you rooted for A&M that game.

It's already a done deal, runt#69. UK is the 6-seed you wanted.
Edit: No, sorry. UK could still drop to a 7-seed if Ole Miss wins.
It's not out of the realm of possibility we are still seeded above them in the NCAA tournament.
We will earn it if so with alabama waiting on Friday if we win game 1. (Assuming we end up at 6).
6 or 7 is basically same thing though we are on same side of bracket and we would play a different team but who knows which team we would rather play of the 4 they all about same
I'd rather the 7pm game instead of the 9:30pm game.
But that's just for selfish reasons lol. I am getting too old for this LOL.

Same here. I'm off 3 17 to 3 21 week but have to work on Friday the 14th. That sucks to be up that late in a work nite. Lol.
