I too am starting to get a bit nervous that MU will fall to the #4 seed line, with the wrong results today, but then I start to feel better when I realize that since the BE became the BE what it is today in 2006, the 2nd place finisher in the conference has NEVER gotten lower than a #3 seed. I'm hanging my hat on that going into tomorrow.
Oh yeah and it helps that Jeff Hathaway is the tourney chairman this year, he is also an adviser to the BE for basketball, and dont forget, one of Buzz's really good friends. ;)
I just put up a new S-Curve on Cracked Sidewalks, but I think that for us to fall to the 4-line, 3 teams still need to jump past us out of these five:
1) Michigan: Beating Minnesota wasn't enough, must beat Ohio State
2) Louisville: Must beat Cincinnati
3) Wisconsin: Must win Big Ten tournament
4) Florida State: Must win ACC tournament
5) Vanderbilt: Must win SEC tournament by beating Kentucky in the final
I just don't see us dropping as of right now.
