[QUOTE="Plebe, post: 2084468, member: 6927"] Auburn, currently Charlie Creme's "first team out" of the NCAA field, is a curious case. After beating Tennessee by 18 in January, they were being projected as a #6 or #7 seed. However, since then they have gone 3-9 over their last 12 games, including consecutive losses in February to Georgia, Ole Miss, and Alabama. They recovered to score a quality win over LSU and held serve against Arkansas, but then exited the SEC tournament with another loss to Georgia. With a 17-14 record (7-9 SEC), I believe Auburn would tie the record for the worst win-loss percentage to receive an at-large bid since the field was expanded to 64 teams in 1994. (North Carolina State was selected with a 17-14 record in 2004.) A nervous parent of an Auburn player compiled the following case: [IMG]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C6SSw6nWgAEzS00.jpg[/IMG] It's hard not to chuckle at the obvious homer bias (as well as a few inaccuracies) in this "research," but it doesn't change the fact that, in this oh-so-soft bubble year, Auburn is in the mix for a possible at-large bid. It's hard to have much more confidence in the prospects of a George Washington team whose best win of the season was over Dayton. [/QUOTE]
