Doubt if Syracuse is there either when it's all said and done.how is Wisconsin in the tournament
I'd rather be the 2 in the South (Louisville) than the 1 in the East (Philly).
I like our chances against anyone playing in Kentucky in March.
how is Wisconsin in the tournament
I think they self imposed a ban this year anyways didn't they?Doubt if Syracuse is there either when it's all said and done.
It is possible we end as a 2 seed but I think we get the 1. We aren't losing many games . 4 more tops and I think it will be closer to 2 more. Just too much talent and great coaching and not many good teams much less great. Think we lose at Texas A&M and at KU and maybe at Vandy . That is it . We will push UL's crap in like they are a new fish in prison.We're not going to be a #1 seed.
I wish you're right, but I just dont see it. Lots of these away games we could lose easily. At USC, at UGA, at Florida, at A&M, etc. and we'll lose to Kansas. I think we had 8 losses when we had Liggins, Lamb, Miller, Jorts and company....and that team could run circles around this one. Every questionable year we always say "No, we'll definitely win those games"...then we lose. I'm thinking 6 losses.It is possible we end as a 2 seed but I think we get the 1. We aren't losing many games . 4 more tops and I think it will be closer to 2 more. Just too much talent and great coaching and not many good teams much less great. Think we lose at Texas A&M and at KU and maybe at Vandy . That is it . We will push UL's crap in like they are a new fish in prison.
Dang I love confidence.

Not true at all. I don't think any 1 seeds will have less than 4 this year and all may have 5-6 or even 7 losses. Kansas isn't going to roll through the Big 12 with less than 4 losses, so that would put them at 5, and they still have to play us. Maybe we just shouldn't even show up in Lawrence since you're handing that game to KU already.Its Perspective. We need to lose a max of 3-4 games to be a 1 seed. Unless Skal turns into Anthony Davis, that aint happening. We're going to be good, but I can't see a 1 seed happening.
Again, teams with 5-7 losses get one seeds often. And this is probably one of those years where there may not be any teams with less than 5.as you said, you have to be a 3-4 loss team usually to be a 1 seed. I can't see this team losing just 3-4 before the NCAAT. It's possible, but I wouldn't bet on it at this point.
That is pretty often. And it's just dependent on the year. How many teams do you see with less than 4 losses this year? I just looked at KU's schedule and I think they lose 6 and that is with them beating us. We're still going to be in okay shape headed into January most likely at 11-1. I do think we probably lose at Kansas unless our shooting improves greatly and Skal starts producing. But even then I still think we are 26-5 when all is said and done and that will probably get us a 1 seed this year.a team with 5 or more losses has only received a 1 seed 19 times since 2000. That's 19/64. That means is happens 29.6% of the time. Basically that's the equivalent of saying roughly only one 1 seed per year has more than 4 losses. The other 70% of the time it's 4 or less. I wouldn't call that "often", but to each his own.
I don't know about at Bama. I guess any road game will be a challenge unless we improve a ton, but there are some games I definitely put ahead of Bama. At South Carolina for sure. They are looking like a legit NCAAT team for once.The Duke and ASU wins look good. The UCLA loss is not looking so bad now, if we can beat teams we should and only lose 3-5 more games we will have a #1 seed. The ACC and Big 12 will beat up on each other all year long. We lose only 4 we are a lock for a number #1 seed, we lose 4 but lose the SEC title game we have a 75% at being a #1.
At Vandy KU LSU and Bama A@M and home games ul, UF, Vandy will tell the story.
I know that's almost week old at this point but I "love" how no matter what, linardi always puts teams in brackets that creates drama, storylines, or rematches.
Msu has Louisville in theirs
Kentucky has notre dame, Wisconsin, wvu, Cincinnati, ucla and unc all in that bracket. Remember how many times he had Wisconsin as the 2 in UK bracket last year.
Maybe he knows something we don't but it's laughable how obvious some of the matchups are.
