#7 seed vs. Marquette in SLC. Arizona would await in the next round.

I know the matchups are arbitrary at this point but Marquette would be a dreadful one for SMU. They would destroy us from distance.

While MU is shooting 41% from 3, they're allowing opponents to shoot 38% from 3...We'd cook too

Clemson would be nice but I imagine Arizona might just expose our lack of size

That's complete horse pucky. That would mean we are one of the last 4 in. No one is predicting us to be that low on the bubble at this point.

8 seeds are not one of the last 4 in. 11 seeds are the last 4 in usually.

Or, did you think he said we would be playing IN Dayton instead of AGAINST Dayton?

we lose another game on the road at Tulsa, Houston or even Temple or UConn and we will be looking at a 10 or 11 seed, which I'd prefer to that 8/9 game. Just hope our guys are healthy and peaking come AAC Tourney time and that it carries over into the Dance

you're assuming that he doesn't transfer or "go Pro" before then

Yes, misread it. Thought it meant playing in Dayton rather than against, and wasn't really tuned into the seeding. You are correct. Still would rather not play the 1 in the 2nd round.
