Sadly, I suspect its Conference Tourney or bust. 

That SMU game is gonna be tough, but a win will help slightly. Those awful losses though may be too much to overcome.

It all depends on how we end the season. It's still that good ol long shot but if we run the table, losing in conf tourney semis or finals, the Committee would have to look at our body of work after those 2 awful losses ....... but a lot of basketball to be played yet.

0% if you lose in the semis. Correct me if I am wrong but with a double bye our first game would be in the semis. Cant go 0-1. Possible in a close finals loss (I would say very unlikely) and you would need FSU, Memphis, FAU, and SMU to keep getting W's.

This is the thing that bothers me the most in regards to how a team is viewed. I remember that we started off the 2011 - 2012 season 7-6 and went on a good run in Big East play. Obviously, playing in that league was a huge reason that we received an at large bid.

2 losses 2 and half months ago shouldn't be an anchor holding this team back from an NCAA Tournament bid. We obviously have to continue to win, but no one can say that we are not one of the better teams in the country at this moment.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
