If we get the dreaded 8/9 matchup...

[dallasdore]

Teams I'm not afraid of:

Purdue

Houston to a lesser extent (just got to contain Sasser)

If we are in the 7/10 game or even 6/11:

UConn

Baylor to a lesser extent

I'd LOVE our chances in a second round game with Purdue or Uconn. I'd feel good about playing the other two as well.

You think Houston is going to be an 8 or 9 seed?

Obviously, they would be the 1 seed in our pod.

Given the spot we are in now, an 8 or 9 seed is not something to dread.

He means second round. AFTER we win the 8/9 game

Sasser at Houston is injured. For now.

A little early for 23/24 predictions here.

We’re a one seed this year. And we’ll get to play at memorial again!

If it is the NIT, we better make it to the garden this time.

The NIT semis and final are in Las Vegas this year - Indianapolis next year. Hopefully we're in the NCAA though!

The “dreaded” seed is 11 or 12 when you have to play in Tuesday or Wednesday.

Been there. Done that.

If we’re this much on the bubble then the play-in game would make the most sense. I’ll take it.

If we get the dreaded 8/9 matchup ...

... I will applaud the committee for putting us where we actually belong based on our wins, instead of judging us by our losses.

Yes - as of this year.

Pretty ambitious thinking VU can go from Next 4 out to an 8 or 9 seed. Who knows thought as none of this makes sense and it ends up as old guys in a room making these decisions. If the SEC gets 8, then Vandy absolutely should get a bid (likely as an 11 seed). Otherwise, a 1 or 2 seed in the NIT isn't a terrible consolation prize. It's great we even have a reason to watch the selection this year as Vandy fans.

I would be ecstatic about getting that seed.
