If we best AM we get to play TN and then KY and then a breather championship game vs LSU, SC, or Auburn. IF we should get to the championship game our NCAA seed would skyrocket.

Think about that same path to the championship by 5 seed Auburn. They get UGA/Missouri. Then USCe. Then a coach-less and Smart-less LSU.

If we were the 5 seed, I’d think we could navigate that pretty easily.

How big is that loss at South Carolina now? We would have been either the 4 or 5 seed at 11-7 on that side of the bracket regardless. We would probably be projected as a 5 with one more quality win & potentially needing one win in the SECT to be a 4 seed in the Dance.

Everything about the SEC men's standings and seedings are a crap shoot. This deal about playing 5 teams twice and everyone else once really makes things random. Killed us this year as the bottom teams were definitively Vandy, TA&M, Mizzou and Georgia and we didn't get to play ANY of them twice. As far as I could tell every team ahead of us in the standings got at least one of those four twice.
