I don't think so. The selection committee probably had their eye on us for the first part of SEC play. To see if we'd deal with adversity and keep plugging away. We did nothing of the sort. Even if we get hot, win out in the SEC and win a couple games in the SEC tourney, they will still see us as a team with no self confidence, and no sense of pride. And they'd be right. The only time we truly have confidence is when were playing a clearly inferior team at home.rebeloke wrote:Are we dancing then?
Don't expect more than 1 more SEC win and an early exit in the tourney.
IF we get invited to the NIT, we'll be done in 2 games. Of course I'm HOPING for much more, but that's all I'm putting into it.

I think we suffered from some injuries that could easily explain the skid. Skids happen just look at your britches if you don't believe me. Once you let a little liquid slip then it gets harder to hold containment due the increase lubrication. Before you know it you have a dump load of trouble. The important thing is to got get yourself cleaned up and make the most of the rest of the day.

I tend to agree. As I have said a couple of times, I am upset that the guys gave me false hope during the "preseason," but at this point, they are right on target to go the NIT as I predicted back in October. I hate to keep using the "freshman" excuse, but this is a young team that will be solid for a couple of years to come.
I say that we win two in the SEC tourney and two in the NIT.

It's not insane to suggest that the Rebels have the best defensive line in college football.

Lol, that's about the nastiest metaphor I've ever heard, but truly applicable.rebeloke wrote:I think we suffered from some injuries that could easily explain the skid.

you gotta believe that it could happen though
the big ten is down this year and there's a few big east teams that are struggling down the stretch
arkansas got in last year with about the same record that we have this year
people know that we have fallen off, but if we can play big and close out with two wins and then get two more in the tourney? that'd be winning 5 out of the last 6 games
i think it's possible especially with three seniors on a roster that hasn't seen a lot of winning during their 4 years...it's just a good story line

If you were watching ESPN last night and they did the blind resume comparisons, and it certainly appears that we make a stronger case than some who are assumed to already be in. Course, if they won their conference and got an automatic berth then it doesn't matter at all. Still, we make as good a case if not better than Florida.
But I don't know jack squat about basketball, so take that for what it's worth.

GO REBELS!!!
Between us, Florida, Kentucky, and Arkansas, one team is in and possibly two.
Tenn, Vandy, and State are in. A fourth SEC team is guaranteed and a fifth not out of the question. We have to root against FL, KY, and Ark every game. It would be possible to get in with just 2 more wins I think. Three is a guarantee!!!
