Going into the tournament

This team can beat anybody. I can’t understand how our SOS is not #1 having played UK x2, Auburn x3, Bama x2, Ut x2 and the ****** SEC teams only once. Granted we suck on the other team’s floor but neutral we have a shot against any team.

I've seen MSU listed at 11th and 23rd for SOS.
So depending on what's measured, it's a top 25 difficulty schedule.

As for how we aren't #1...i don't know who is, but I can say that thru the season it's seemed like Houston, Iowa State, UCONN, Baylor, KU, have had really tough schedules too.
...and that's just listing non-SEC teams.

Well, Alabama played a very similar SEC schedule and played Purdue, Ohio State, Creighton, Arizona, Oregon, Clemson in the non con.

Worst team they played was probably Mercer. We played at least 5 teams worse than them and lost to one of them.

So, tougher schedule than usual for us, but not near the toughest.
