It's amazing how quickly we have gone from very underrated to somewhat overrated.

If we go 10-8 in conference and beat UF for the final non con game we will be 22-9 with a crap ton of Q1 wins. I don’t think a 4-6 seed is out of the question and winning 8/16 big 12 games isn’t either.

Yeah, we're exceeding expectations but at this point that is pretty realistic, and I think with the Big 12's strength having a 6 seed is fairly obtainable.

Lunardi is consistently frustrating with how he completely disregards pods. If we're a four seed, we'll either be in Des Moines or Denver. If this trend of KU, K-State, and flood aggie continues, this is another reason to cheer hard against flood aggie.

Would be awesome to land in Denver

I’d be great with either Des Moines or Denver!

Those prices in shitty Albany too.

If it’s in Albany I won’t go. I will sell whatever allotment I can get through the Ahearn fund as a season ticket holder to anyone interested though at cost.

If you want to go, you'll be able to get face value tickets when they go on sale. Don't ever buy regional and final four tickets from a reseller months before the event.

michigancat · « **Reply #2590 on:** January 06, 2023, 03:47:35 PM »

I didn't realize they weren't on sale yet!

MakeItRain · « **Reply #2591 on:** January 06, 2023, 03:56:07 PM »

Yeah, it says verified resale. Those tickets are likely from a MSG PSL holder. You'll be able to get a all session pass in that location for about that price, if not cheaper.

they have to seed us on what we’ve done, not what we should be doing or what we’re going to do or anything else. it’s a snapshot in time, not suggesting we’re going to end the season as a four.

based on what we have done, we’re easily a four seed and maybe even a 3. so not overrated and possibly underrated. thank you for listening and GO CATS!

Pretty hard to argue we are close to a 3 seed when we are 17 in the Net and 3 - 1 in Quad 1 games. We are also 29th in KenPom. We look like a 4 - 5 seed right now. We are getting a lot of credit for a game in which had 100+ put up on us.

I don't think we're overseeded either, I think we are overated. People think our current form is sustainable, I don't, not even close. I think we'll spend most of the season on the bubble.

Palm at CBS has us as a 3 seed right now which is too high. Lunardi and the host of others seem more reasonable at 4 - 6 seeds.

I have a hard time seeing us dropping to the bubble given the strength of the Big 12. Even if we start going .500 each week for the rest of the season that will give us enough quality wins to stay above the bubble. We would need to go on a 4ish game-losing streak to drop to bubble.
