12 more games and have to go 8-4 in them. Yikes. I say that while we still have to go 6-6, which is far from a given
If you’re talking about just making the regionals, I disagree. Both State and OM are in the exact same spot as of right now. We’ve gotta get to 15-15….more than likely. OM can get in at 13-17, as their nonconference schedule is much stronger than ours. Both teams need to go 7-5 from here on out to get off the bubble. It’s great that we pulled even with them this weekend from a resume perspective.
Of course, all else being equal, we can also get a leg up on them with a win Tuesday….this is maybe the most important Governor’s Cup of all time when considering each team’s current postseason prospects.
I think 14 SEC wins is pretty close to a lock. Only team left out with 14 wins since the field expanded to 64 was A&M in 2008. With the injuries we’ve had, the strong finish it will take to get to 14-16, and defending national champions, I think 14 gets us in. A win Tuesday would sure help though.
