Oh so all we have to do is go 16-4 to get a lower seed. Great...

If we went 24-7 (only 4 losses) and won 2 conference tourney games I bet we would get a pretty solid seed.

It's to far out to predict about seeding. If we get on a roll then that could be a fun discussion.

Stanford and Memphis will show how far the team comes with press defense and new offensive concepts. At that point we will know if we will get in or not.

Not to discredit that bracket, but the person who made it is still in high school... he's still probably more knowledgeable than half the college basketball writers out there

24 regular season or including conference tourney? Because if we go 23-8 and then finish 24-9 or 25-9 after conference tourney, I would think we would make the tourney.

Joe Lunardi updated his bracketology this morning. He has us as a 10 seed vs Wichita St. and we're not even in the group of last 4 in.
