I disagree. Tuesday night's play-in against Tenn would be a [deleted] draw for SMU. Playing Kentucky may not give us the best chance at a win but it gives us a chance to beat high profile team at the site closest to SMU.

Please, please let this happen!


And SMU would be the only lower seed to get a "Home" bracket draw. Could we be that Lucky? :mrgreen:

CBS also has SMU against Xavier in the first round in Dayton with the winner going against VCU.

I've tried to stay quiet on this topic, but I'm just assuming SMU is beyond the play in.

i don't think we can assume we are beyond the play in at all. Laid a turd at the wrong time.

I thought so too, Cox. But all of the "experts" except Lunardi have us in the play-in game.

We'll know soon enough. I'm booking my room for SA right now...you can always cancel. Rooms will fly off the shelf quickly over the next few hours.

You mean opening round game. If we go there let's not downgrade the game because it is still making the tournament. It is not called the "play in" game.

Jay Bilas just said if Michigan loses that Louisville should be the last #1 seed. He said he believes they are one of the four best teams in the country. I agree with him.

Very tough call to make for a team with a SOS ~100.
