Be nice if we could end up a 5 seed for that 5/12 first round matchup.

We can earn it plenty of big games left and the SECT.

Oh the obligatory 12/5 upset.

Just as a for what it's worth ...

A win tonight versus LSU may lead to some interesting swings in the RPI rankings. The Tigers are at #77 this morning and even with a loss to Bama tonight they are in good position to move into the top 75. That would essentially be moving LSU from a Q2 to a Q1 team.

What happens if Bama beats KY and AU...would definitely make for an interesting topic.

Bama better bring it tonight. LSU had a packed home crowd at the house Maravich built and they wanted our Bama scalp on their wall. They are obsessed at the thought of beating us in anything. And I do think losing to another unranked team at home is going to start costing us with the committee.

I'll be there doing my part to try and help us win!!!

Beating AU with wins against UT and UF? In terms of the SEC we'd be looking at the team getting a bye on Wednesday and Thursday. Both would be two more Q1 wins to put the team at nine if my math is correct. (I say nine assuming Bama beats LSU tonight and they end up in the top 75.) IF that happens we'd also be looking at 'Nova and Kansas as the only two teams with more Q1 wins.

15. Alabama (27)

Don’t be shocked by some of the leaps of teams in the Power 36. If you saw Alabama rock Tennessee then you would think the Tide is a top seed. Alabama was that special against the Vols, easily erasing the loss to Mississippi State.

From Teamrankings.com Teams of note highlighted.

It's interesting going into a road game against UK and seeing Bama with a higher percentage chance of making "The Dance."

Lundardi's latest has Bama as a 7 seed in VA's bracket.

 

[TerryP]

I'd rather not see Bama in Virginia's bracket. The defense can be a signature of this team in the tourney and VA arguably has the best in the nation.

I'd love to see this seeding in Lunardi's latest:

I've never seen Lunardi update brackets back to back days. Things are heating up. Bama a 6 seed trending up.
I like it!
