Completely agree, but I bet we drop at least 1 more. 7-2 is what I'd hoped for before league play began and that means we only need 1 road game to lock up a tourney bid.
I would be happy if we finish 7-2 at home at Hilton and sneak out a road win in the conference. I'd be ECSTATIC if we finish 8 - 1 at home and sneak out 3 road wins. If we finished 11-7 in conference and undefeated in the non-con, depending on who those wins are against, you'd have to say we'd be looking at about a 3 or 4 seed in the Tourney (heck, maybe even a 2 depending on the wins and other teams). That's how tough the Big XII is. Finish 8-10 in conference, and undefeated in the non-con, and I'd have to say about a 7 or 8 seed. Big XII is brutal. Thus, I think we could get in at 7-11 in the conference season as well. It's that kind of year for the Big XII, particularly if it wraps up the SEC - Big XII challenge games with a 7 -3 type record. It will
clearly be the best conference by far and away at that point.
Fun to think about the Tourney again at this time of year!!
