What exactly is a protected seed?

It means we are in

I think it also means that they try and get you a first round game close to home.  :dunno:

Louisville would be amazing, if we didn't get Omaha in that scenario.

He refused to last time he was at a Cats tourney locale.

JMart has already confirmed a KATPAK if we get Portland.

Lots of math talk on today's CBS college hoops podcast.  Around 12 minutes in, one of them says EMAW's RPI and the RPI in general is mumped up.

Really surprised our RPI is that low.  Then again, I don't even know how the hell RPI works, and haven't checked is since last season probably.  All I know is they say it is used to group teams as "quality win, etc." and not really a way to actually rank the teams individually.  Still weird to think of KSU not being thought of as a quality win.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Gotta think RPI will get a shot in the ass from our recent and upcoming portions of the schedule.
