Title: Why are the Vols not being considered for a 1 seed? Post by: PirateVOL on March 13, 2022, 12:34:53 EST Kentucky x2 (1 on neutral court)
Arizona Arkansas Auburn 10 Quad 1 Wins Why do I post this? POST GAME Linardy STILL has a 3 seed :bird: Title: Re: Why are the Vols not being considered for a 1 seed? Post by: Black Diamond Vol on March 13, 2022, 12:38:20 EST If we win tomorrow (and FFS let’s not take that for granted again), I think we’ll grab a 2. We’d need a lot of help over the next 24 hours to get a 1. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a 1 seed with seven losses, even though we might have the best resume of any seven loss team ever.

Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on March 13, 2022, 03:40:12 EDT I would love to know how NET rankings are determined. After today, UK's NET ranking is 4 and ours is 8.
UK has losses to Duke (#11 in NET), Notre Dame (52), LSU (18), Auburn (12), Arky (20), and UT (8) twice. We have losses to Nova (6), TTU (9), Bama (28), LSU (18), Arky (20), Texas (16), and UK (4). I know that I'm not factoring in wins or where the wins/losses occurred, but this doesn't seem reasonable. Title: Re: Why are the Vols not being considered for a 1 seed?

Title: Re: Why are the Vols not being considered for a 1 seed? Post by: volsboy on March 13, 2022, 08:34:15 EDT If they win today they should be a 1.
Title: Re: Why are the Vols not being considered for a 1 seed? Post by: SmokeyJoe on March 13, 2022, 09:16:20 EDT Lunardi just said we are still a 3 seed. Wow!
Title: Re: Why are the Vols not being considered for a 1 seed? Post by: Black Diamond Vol on March 13, 2022, 09:19:07 EDT Lunardi just said we are still a 3 seed. Wow! Yeah, he really clowned himself just now. If we're not a 2, I'll be pissed. :bird: Title: Re: Why are the Vols not being considered for a 1 seed? Post by: PirateVOL on March 13, 2022, 09:23:19 EDT Lunardi just said we are still a 3 seed. Wow! Fortunately, lunardturd is NOT part of the selection committee Title: Re: Why are the Vols not being considered for a 1 seed? Post by: murfvol on March 13, 2022, 09:27:42 EDT We better be a high 2. The number is not debatable.
Title: Re: Why are the Vols not being considered for a 1 seed? Post by: Black Diamond Vol on March 13, 2022, 11:36:16 EDT TT and Duke lost yesterday, Purdue is about to lose today. That can only help us.
Title: Re: Why are the Vols not being considered for a 1 seed? Post by: PirateVOL on March 13, 2022, 11:46:45 EDT TT and Duke lost yesterday, Purdue is about to lose today. That can only help us. not according to the all knowing LinardiTitle: Re: Why are the Vols not being considered for a 1 seed? Post by: Coupe De VOL on March 13, 2022, 11:55:07 EDT Well, Zaga, Zona, and Baylor seem to be concensus #1s. I think Kansas and Auburn are very close to the last #1, but i'd give the edge to Kansas for winning their tourney.
I still think Aubie should be rated the best SEC team, but we are right there with them. AUB and TN should get 2's, pretty clearly. It would be a travesty if UK was seeded above us - we have clearly had a better season than UK. Give Aubie the Greenville #2 and the VOls the Indy #2. That is HOW IT SHOULD BE. Maybe the Wildcats should get one of the other #2's, but I see them on the border of a 2/3. JMO. Title: Re: Why are the Vols not being considered for a 1 seed? Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on March 14, 2022, 12:07:11 EDT I disagree about Auburn. They have looked very poor to close the year.
Title: Re: Why are the Vols not being considered for a 1 seed? Post by: BanditVol on March 14, 2022, 12:13:04 EDT Lunardi is not the ncaa and gets a lot wrong frankly. I wouldn't sweat him
I think we will be a 2. 2 might be better than 1 the. Plenty of 2s make the ff. Title: Re: Why are the Vols not being considered for a 1 seed? Post by: Black Diamond Vol on March 14, 2022, 12:14:27 EDT Bullshizzle. :bird:
Title: Re: Why are the Vols not being considered for a 1 seed? Post by: Black Diamond Vol on March 14, 2022, 12:15:30 EDT Bullshizzle. :bird: And fizzleing Duke got a fizzleing 2 seed and 2 fizzleing home games to boot. What a fizzleing joke. :bird: Title: Re: Why are the Vols not being considered for a 1 seed? Post by: BanditVol on March 14, 2022, 01:14:15 EDT And fizzleing Duke got a fizzleing 2 seed and 2 fizzleing home games to boot. What a fizzleing joke. :bird: Eh. They are polishing Coach K's knob to make him feel better about retiring. They obviously see high ratings $$$$ for all his games. Not terribly surprising. Good news though, that shizzle is gone after this season. :naughty: Title: Re: Why are the Vols not being considered for a 1 seed? Post by: volsboy on March 15, 2022, 08:06:30 EDT I dont think Duke will go a long way in the tournament. Their best three players are freshman. Boeheim said they will struggle when they play teams with 5th year seniors and teams with more experience. He said there are a lot of experienced teams that will fair well against teams that have great freshman. I hope we have enough experience to go with our freshman to get bye that problem.
