Not that it matters but kind of a harsh drop after a 1 point loss in the fashion that it happened on the road to the now # 4 team.

That was my impression, too. Seems like they should've moved up two to #6 and we should've dropped two to #7. Oh well, not a big deal.

Good thing about bball is it willwork itself out in the end. If we win the rest out our OOC and lose only 2 games in SEC to either UK, Mizz we should still be inline for a 1 seed, a 2 at worst.

Yup...all that really matters in the end is getting a 1 or 2 seed in the Tourney. The rest will take care of itself.

The '04s lost 5 or 6 games in both their title seasons, so I wouldn't worry.
1 or 2 seed is a very high probability.
