    Hopefully that translates into at least a #2 NIT seed.

    I expect Tech to drop at least one seed line from RPI due to the combination of SOS, season finish, non-power conference.

    It will be a travesty if Tech is on the 4 seed line or below.

    For those looking, LSU is the 28th best eligible RPI not in the NCAA Tournament...that would be a #7 seed strictly on RPI. #7 LSU at #2 Tech maybe?

    Some of THE Tech folks began this talk last night...apparently during the baseball game. It's the only way we'd ever have an lsu team playing in state north of BR.

    USM got left out??

    And if you think LSU would agree to play in Ruston maybe you're thinking of a different LSU.

    I don't think LSU would have much say in the matter.

    That's what I'm wondering. Do they have enough political sway to affect this? I know they'd bitch about it.

    It might not even happen so lets not worry about it...oh wait this is BBB

    They can turn it down like Rupp and Malone did a few years ago.

    Between that and the women's NIT snub, the WAC doesn't allow NIT declines. One legacy Tech will leave the WAC with.

    That's a good rule! I wish it had been in place before we were the cause!

    How about this?

    Schools now have to let the NIT know before the season starts if they would accept a potential bid or not. No bids can be declined on Selection Sunday anymore. Before the season started, all SEC teams agreed to accept NIT invites.

    Welcome to the world of Southern Miss, where getting screwed by the NCAA is common practice.

    Tough game against Memphis.

    We didn't help y'all much by losing our last 3.

    Still, y'all did get screwed.

    Rupp never turned down an NIT bid.
